I haven't tested with plugins. But I doubt if it would work. It works great for Vanilla Jekyll with Markdown.
Does it output a static website?
This is independent of your jekyll site generator. What it does is, gives you an editor for your files inside _posts. It understands yaml matter and saves in Jekyll format.
Is it possible to write the posts using mark down instead of the web editor?
The web editor isn't rich text. You edit in Markdown in the web editor. It is an easier way of creating new posts.
Not so much a question but a suggestion, you should have a version of this hosted on AWS/Heroku so people can see it live.
Totally agree. I had thoughts on hosting a demo site. I'll do it.
Would be you interested in teaming up to make a separate project to provide the layout to make your blog look like a svbtle blog? I used to Obvtse but I didn't like it because it the over head of a Rails application.

Apart from svbtle, there are lot of themes that are unique and beautiful (of course with jekyll as backend):

I think dcurtis should be already pissed off that I ripped his design. So not sure about doing it again :)
