Proposal: Integrate MarkItDown's Functionality into Kernel-Memory

[riccardodangelo]

Hi Team,

I’d like to propose integrating MarkItDown's functionality into the Kernel-Memory project to enhance its capabilities in handling diverse file formats. Kernel-Memory’s file decoding service https://github.com/microsoft/kernel-memory/tree/main/service/Core/DataFormats already supports multiple formats, and incorporating MarkItDown’s ability to convert files to Markdown would provide significant benefits.

Key Advantages:
Unified File Processing: Kernel-Memory could leverage MarkItDown to streamline the conversion of decoded files into a Markdown format, enabling better compatibility for indexing, search, and analysis.
Improved Developer Experience: With Markdown being a universal format for collaboration and analysis, this integration would make Kernel-Memory even more developer-friendly.

Thank you for considering this proposal!
