Well of course! You can't interleave things. This is, basically,
<list><table></list></table>. Which is a Bad Thing(TM). What do you
want to do, exactly? It should be possible with nice XML.

Well it should I think...
<list>
<item><p>stuff 1</p></item>
<item><table>
<row><cell><p>stuff two</p></cell>
<cell><p>stuff three</p></cell>
<cell><list>...</list></cell>
</row></table>
</item>
</list>
Putting an <item> in a <cell> makes no sense to me. Wny would we want
this?
