Subject: Re: Inserting blank lines into a document using Markdown

If I understand correctly the HTML reference, the <br> element must be in a <p> since it is a phrasing content (see here: https://html.spec.whatwg.org/multipage/dom.html#phrasing-content). This is what Pandoc does when outputting to HTML and the reason why it ignores the (illegal) <br> element when it reads your HTML sample. In any case, <br/> can't be put directly under a <body> of <section> element as you seem to wish to do.
Naturally, you could create a paragraph containing only a newline (<p><br/></p>), but you would get an additional interparagraph space, that's why it seems preferable to insert it at the beginning of the paragraph before which you want to set additional space.
