hgroup tags wrapped by p tags

I believe that this is a bug—it’s certainly not what I want—but I’m not sure whether this is required by the standard Markdown test suite.

Markdown supports embedded HTML code. However, in Marked:

<hgroup>
<h1>Test</h1>
<h2>Test</h2>
</hgroup>

This is in **Markdown.**

…becomes:

<p><hgroup>
<h1>Test</h1>
<h2>Test</h2>
</hgroup></p>

<p>This is in <strong>Markdown.</strong></p>

Of course, I’d prefer it if those extra paragraph tags wrapping the hgroup weren’t there. Would it be possible for Marked to recognize hgroup tags as HTML tags too?

   Marked uses MultiMarkdown to process the input. This issue falls into that domain. I don't think that mmd recognizes hgroup as a tag to ignore (ignores block level elements). You can file a report on the peg-multimarkdown repository at github, but there's not much I can do about this.

   Ah, I feared as much. Thank you for the message!

   I've spoken with Fletcher and we have this and other HTML5 elements included in the parser. The new version of Marked with the updated MultiMarkdown binary should be available in the next few days.
