How would you suggest laying out the following, assuming FIG can be
contained inside P:
<P CLASS="outer">xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx etc etc
<FIG ALIGN="RIGHT" SRC="blah.png"><CAPTION>Something</CAPTION><P>yyyyy</P>
<H3>Minor heading</H3><P>zzzzz</P></FIG>
more xxxxxxxxxxxxx</P>
and would the string "more xxxxxxxx" be contained in a P of class outer?
It sounds as if you are asking for arbitrary nesting of paragraphs etc
inside other paragraphs.
