Guess I'm as practical/pragmatic as Ingo on this, but no matter how I
read the semantics here, this is what you are actually saying in that
sequence:
<li>...
<li>Clean up in the bathroom.</li>
<li>Put on some clothes.<br />
<p>At this point I was interupted by a stray cat wandering in to my
room, sniffing at things, then leaving. Without any reason
not to, I carried on my routine...</p>
</li>
<li>Check the post.</li>
<li>...
The list of tasks is not cut, just interrupted at the end of third task
before starting on the forth task. That's what the above says both in
source and in final output.
Even the <br /> carry semantics in this valid example, created with HTML
Tidy. What more do you want?
Oh well, one can argue semantics until all existing W3C standards are
obsolete, but my simple argument is that "I can't wait that long", and I
don't think 5 years is enough time...
Either the semantics or the standards, or both, will have to be bended
and adjusted slightly, so we can go on with reality. Think that's the
baseline of semantics anyway.
