Blockquote followed by an heading

[tivie]

So, it came to my attention that this:

> a blockquote
# followed by an heading

gets parsed into something like:

<blockquote>
  <p>a blockquote</p>
</blockquote>
<h1>followed by an heading</h1>

Now, the spec states that you can be lazy and only put the > before the first line of a hard-wrapped paragraph. So the correct output should be:

<blockquote>
  <p>a blockquote</p>
  <h1>followed by an heading</h1>
</blockquote>

In fact, github behaves like this (so does markdown.pl)

a blockquote

followed by an heading

But other noteworthy implementations behave like showdown, such as:

• stackoverflow
• commonmark
• cheapskate
• markdown-it
• pandoc (strict)
• PHP Markdown (and PHP MD Extra)
• Maruku
• markdown-it

---

So I'm a bit divided as if we should "fix it" or leave it as it is...

Github behavior changed to match showdown original behavior.

This means:

> a blockquote
# followed by an heading

is parsed as

<blockquote>
  <p>a blockquote</p>
</blockquote>
<h1>followed by an heading</h1>

foo

bar

So this change will be reverted
