    Hmm?   From a casual look at Daring Fireball this morning, about
    the only raw html headers I saw were ones where he was id'ing
    them (since, alas, the standard doesn't have the [foo](id:bar)
    pseudo-protocol.)

    It might be just me, but the surprise factor of having a header
    reach back and grab an entire paragraphs might be less attractive
    than it would seem, even to the body of users who write long headers
    with a text editor that forces line-wrap at 80 characters.
