utterance to the following:
Since the subject seems to have flared up again,
I'm writing up my
vision of the future of wikitext syntax. I think the desire of some
here for double-spaced lists and the clarity of the spec can be
reconciled by using a line-break syntax. I like the suggestion "\\"
(double backslash, in case your mailer screws that up).
So here's how it might work: within a line, "\\" gets replaced by a
BREAK element inline, so it can be used anywhere (inside headings,
tables, etc.). When on a line all by itself, a BREAK element is
added to the currently-open block-level element, which then remains
open. Any totally blank line closes the element (as it does now).
That doesn't solve the problem of wanting to put a string of block elements
within a list item (perfectly legitimate HTML)
