I am experimenting with a plain text engine. I defined a markup writer

in a paragraph element, but not in a "p" element. So I defined a

explain what is going on here?

As far as I can tell, this definition from package/base.scm means that p
will only ever call paragraph with the minimum arguments, making it
impossible to extend p:
(define-markup (p :rest opt :key ident (class #f))
(paragraph :ident ident :class class :loc &invocation-location
(the-body opt)))
I would consider this a bug. I think it would be better to define p in
the usual way, and to extend markup-writer to handle a list of markup
elements.
