Well, DW forked from LJ ages back, and they're still dealing with a lot of the truly shitty back-end stuff that LJ patched together, so stuff that's been improved since DW forked is going to be new. Most of LJ mark-up still works, but there's some really good new stuff...
For example: (lj user="sharpiefan") and (username=sharpiefan) will both get my name, and (username=sharpiefan site=ao3.org) will give a link to AO3 - that works for a lot of other places like Twitter, LJ and (I think) Tumblr. Just use the HTML <> brackets rather than parenthesis!
