  Two paragraphs with an ordered list inbetween. Most definitions of a
  paragraph I've ever heard of does not include ordered lists.

  In XHTML 2, it has been suggested that paragraphs can contain ... many
  things which are not usually considered paragraphs. It is my hope that
  this will be corrected soon.
