The modification to the parser definitely changes the treatment of tags in ordered and unordered plain lists. While this might be acceptable for HTML export, I understand that other backends may rely on this information. > Canceled.

Since you mentioned that stripping tags is a bug and losing information is unjustified, would it be more acceptable if I implemented a similar fix localized within ox-html.el? This would ensure the information is preserved during HTML export without affecting the core syntax tree or other backends. Regards.
