How can I show desired result using something that don't allow to achieve this
desired result? 

The testcases shows exactly "the rendering I would like". If they currently are
formally invalid, this does not make rendering wrong or unclear. What exactly
don't you understand in the testcases (if any)?

Quoting myself from comment 20:

CSS currently cannot generate wrappers. On the contrary, we can easily add
wrappers in HTML _right now_. So some potential fixing of CSS in some potential
future is not an equivalent option.
