Access the character used in task list

[felipesere]

I want to use comrak to parse some markdown that I currently write in ObsidianMD.
In Obsidian, I can have different visuals on tasks depending on the character used.
E.g.

* [ ] looks unchecked
* [x] is checked
* [!] is still checked, but with a ⚠️
* [/] looks "partially done"

if would be nice if the character itself was exposed so I can properly roundtrip the markdown after some processing.

I'm very open to this idea! Pull requests gratefully accepted.

I think it comes down to capturing the character here https://github.com/kivikakk/comrak/blob/main/src/parser/mod.rs#L1653 and tracking in the struct?
I'll get to it this weekend 😅

Yep, that looks exactly right. 👍 😊

@felipesere just as an fyi, GitLab implemented the [~] syntax, which indicates that a task item is inapplicable, and would typically be displayed as being struck out.
