The specification, in my opinion, needs to clarify this.
For example, by stating that each dt refers to all following
dds until the next dt.
Or else, why should a definition list be not just this:
A list of definitions? I.e.,
<dl>
<df>
<dt>foo</dt>
<dd>A word</dd>
</df>
<df>
<dt>bar</dt>
<dd>A sequence of characters</dd>
</df>
</dl>
Where it is specified that for a df-element all dts and dds
form a single definition, i.e., refer to each other.
(Some months ago, a similar "bottom-up unit" was proposed.)
