Rather artificial that. People always use <BR> for this purpose, and you
can't claim that *they* should be ignored. In any case, if you are using
<p> for this purpose you clearly don't want them to be ignored and so
therefore you don't need to use :empty to make them ignored.

That's a bug - it doesn't ignore the Ps here:

so by any interpretation of the spec this is wrong.
