Exclusions of blocks from <DIR> or <MENU>

I saw Dan's message about this and wondered what it means?  I've been
coding for the strict HTML 3 DTD w/ table drafts for a while, and I
am glad to see a DTD for current practice (HTML 3.2) proposed.  One
notion I liked in HTML 3 strict was that <LI> elements had to contain
blocks... I have been doing lists with

<UL><LI><P>stuff<LI><P>more stuff</UL>

According to this, if you have a <MENU> or <DIR>, then you are explicitly
prevented from doing

<MENU><LI><P>First item<LI><P>Second</MENU>

If this is correct, then it is something for us standards-heads of which to
be aware.
