Import of HTML files (and other file formats)

Import of HTML files (and possible other file formats) would be a great addition to this wonderful program.
I'm aware that the markdown syntax doesn't support the full HTML feature set but importing an existing HTML file stripped from all non supported HTML features depending on the chosen flavor of the Markdown syntax.

Add me too.

But if you could make a service like http://domchristie.github.io/to-markdown/ available on your website to convert HTML to a Markdown compatible with MarkdownPad it would help a lot.

http://domchristie.github.io/to-markdown/ converts HTML to markdown but I still have to go in and change lots of things, making it very annoying.

+1 for this feature. Import by File menu +tracking Pasting HTML text right into editor (by Ctrl-V) with same behavior — convert it to Markdown.
