Proposing <qst> and <ans> as inline elements was, I admit, an attempt to 
retro-fit XHTML with as few changes as possible.  Associating inline 
question and answer elements could be done with ID/IDREF, but I concede 
your approach has a better structure and the single-paragraph 
restriction is unacceptable.
