Hi Ben,
Wow, great! I believe this is the first real-world usage that I've seen of
the new "section" feature in Semantic Forms. (It was added in version 2.6,
about a month ago.) Unfortunately, it's accompanied by the first-ever bug
report. :) Your diagnosis is correct - the subsections within that section
are messing up the parsing. I guess we didn't think about the possibility
of users adding subsections when we planned this feature. We'll look into
this - maybe there's an easy fix. If you want to look into it yourself, I
think the relevant code is around lines 1415-1450 of
/includes/SF_FormPrinter.php.
To answer your other question: you can make an output like that, via a
hack: make the top introductory text be another field within the main
template, and then have the template display that field by itself, above
the infobox table.
(You could also, in theory, take that same approach for all the page
sections below the infobox - and some people have done that - although
that's an even bigger hack, and it leads to various problems, most notably
that parsing gets messed up if there's a "|" anywhere in the text.)
