<p> nesting is inconsistent

[rreusser]

p tag nesting is a little inconsistent, which makes it challenging to manage formatting. For example,

[li]test[/li] --> <li>test</li>

whereas:

[li]**test**[/li] --> <li><p><strong>test</strong></p></li>

Perhaps it would be better if everything were nested in a p tag when not already. I suspect this is how markdown does it, though it would be worth checking.

Actually, checking over what github's markdown renderer does by inspecting this box, it seems the default is not to wrap in a p tag in most cases. A few sanity checks confirm that things basically make pretty good sense:

• Test ⟶ <p>Test</p>
• <p>Test</p> ⟶ <p>Test</p>
• **Test** ⟶ <p><strong>Test</strong></p>
• # **Test** ⟶ <h1><strong>Test</strong></h1>
• Adding a line break between any one of the items of a list triggers wrapping each <li>'s content in a p tag. Otherwise they're bare.

Is this issue just for nesting <p>s inside of a list, or is it more general?

The updates I pushed to support nesting markdown syntax inside of the list syntax should help clean this up a little bit.

Found one more case that's a bit problematic:

[span][span]test[/span][/span] is rendered as <p><span><p><span>test</span></p></span></p> so that you can't currently nested components inline.
