Right.  I'm aware of that and specifically chose the apostrophes.
Because my code must handle both blocks and inlines, I generally try to
make it generic and use the apostrophes and simply output a break when
necessary (between blocks).  I think I'll just emit an extra br request.
Thanks for the response.
