The reason I initially asked this was because I've seen
MojoMojo-powered sites doing Markdown in divs just fine (e.g.
http://formfu.org). It turns out that indeed MojoMojo uses
Multimarkdown with the markdown_in_html_blocks flag set to true[^mm].
What surprises me is the rationale of disabling Markdown processing in
<div>s.
