Currently, the <question> element allows raw text, but the <answer>
element doesn't, which seems a bit unintuitive:
<faq>
<question>Can I do X</question>
<answer>
<p>Nope, sorry</p>
</answer>
</faq>
The patch I've just applied allows mixed content in <answer>:
<faq>
<question>Can I do X</question>
<answer>Nope, sorry</answer>
</faq>
For comparison, Docbook requires block-level content for <question> and
<answer>:
