Hi Will & Kristaps,

i must admit i never really looked at the HTML code,
so my comment is probably not that informed, but:

>  [div padding-left=xx]
>    [div margin-left=-xx]
>      Left
>    [/div]
>    [div]
>      Right
>    [/div]
>  [/div]

That looks horribly wrong.  I mean, the whole point of HTML
is structural markup.  So, it seems obvious to me that .Bl -tag
has to be rendered using <dl>, anything else seems just insane.

Maybe some additional CSS to beautify the formatting, but
without <dl>?!  Even if you say "it doesn't look nice":
What is the point of using HTML without using it?

Yours,
  Ingo
