Special role of the 'section' class when generating HTML?

Dear all,

Please see the "try pandoc" shown at the bottom of the message (markdown
and HTML are shown below). It seems that the 'section' class must trigger
some special HTML writer behaviour? Any thoughts?

Thanks,
William.

PS, Ideally I'd prefer these divs not to be converted to sections, but I
can live with that.

::: section :::
# A
The div and its 'section' class seem to be ignored here.
:::

::: section :::
<!-- -->
# B
Adding a comment fixes this, but the id isn't propagated to the section
element (and this header isn't in the ToC). See <
https://github.com/jgm/pandoc/issues/8518>.
:::

::: xxx :::
# C
Alternatively, can use a different class name (apparently anything other
than 'section'?). In this case, the id _is_ propagated to the section
element.
