I don't know if it would satisfy Laura's concern fully, but I am curious what
the use case for that is, if any. It seems like a bad feature to allow
non-whitespace content in the paragraph, since that way you could have a
single-paragraph section with an embedded image (perhaps floated), and then the
validator would not catch the error that you forgot to omit alt. It is likely
that in such a case, the section heading would not be a good text alternative
for the image.
