Thanks. (You don't need to address the below comment.) I think this method could benefit from an assertion or an unconditional check that would guard against calling this method with a taglet list containing a non-block taglet. That is, a taglet `t` such that `t.isBlockTag() == false`. This is a bit different from `TagletWriter#getInlineTagOutput` where the check is built into the method; `TagletWriter#getBlockTagOutput` relies on a caller to pass the correct list. ------------- PR: https://git.openjdk.java.net/jdk/pull/406
