[osis-core] Element Review: <item>

Hrmmmph. It would be a nuisance to have to use <p></p> inside
every list item. An alternate solution to handling list items 
with multiple paragraphs (apparently) would be to use a new
list item of a different type, e.g. 

<list>
  <item> item 1
  <item> item 2 first paragraph
  <item type="continue"> item 2 second paragraph.
</list>

It messes with the semantics of "item" a bit though.  I'm not sure
which I prefer.

Harry,

Agreed. See chart about to appear that adds <p> to item.

Question: Then the phrase stuff I suggested below should be found in 
<p>, compelling the use of <item><p></p></item> correct?

Just want to make sure we are describing the same behavior.

Thanks!

Patrick
