+ # The current DocBook implementation is quite lacking, but it would require
+ # a lot more C++ code to have perfect output. The major problem: not all
+ # elements within a column should be wrapped in an item. It has been
+ # designed for pure text (like in Modules > Page Layout > Multiple Columns,
+ # the excerpt of "The Adventure of the Empty House"), it produces wrong
+ # output for lists (such as Document classes > Articles > Astronomy >
+ # Supported environments, the Columns flex only contains a list). Columns
+ # within columns are not supported either (as in Modules > Page Layout >
+ # Multiple Columns > Columns inside Columns).
