As much as I agree with you, I tend to believe it'll break backward compatibility for a couple of people. I've seen this a couple of times:
      Paragraph...
      Header
    ======
    Paragraph...
although I don't remember exactly where. So I think this should be kept working.

OK. I don't feel strongly about it, I suppose.

But what about this:

    #this#
    that

Right now that gets turned into

    <h1>this</h1>

    <p>that</p>

and I think that's just plain wrong. The only reason this works is
by accident; so I plan to require a blank line here.


About this:
      this
    hello
    =====
    that
  I wouldn't encourage anyone to write a two-line heading in
most circumstances, but given ambiguous input, it does seem
the most logical thing to do is to not separate contiguous
text into parts. So I'd say it's one header and one paragraph:
      <h1>this
    hello<h1>
      <p>that</p>

After reading other comments in this thread, I'm inclined to say
that Setext-style headers should not have embedded newlines. In
which case the above would translate to:

    <p>this
    hello
    =====
    that</p>

I think.
