Re: [O] Org-special-blogs does not make well-formed xhtml

[Christian Moe]

Hi, Carsten,

I've submitted a patch separately. It seems to play nice with the 
enclosed test file.

If org-special-blocks is supposed to become part of the core (it's 
moved out of contrib, but we still have to require it), it might make 
sense to just move the html and latex formatting code into org-html.el 
and org-latex.el respectively, together with the handling of 
blockquotes, verses, centering etc.

Yours,
Christian
