Should `watch` also `render`?

If you watch something, you could still be sitting on an obsolete version of slides, because the markdown doesn't actually change.

Does it make sense for watch to first render the latest version of the slides?

Yeah, that seems reasonable. A clever thing might be to put the MD5 hash of the markdown as a comment at the top of the html, so that you could check if the two are consistent, but this is easier.

Do you want to file a PR on this? I can do it pretty easily, but I don't want to duplicate work.
