Indeed, I was checking that at the same time as you did :)
Paul, if you’re interested the grammar is in ConfluenceWikiScanner.jj and the
list of macro which are defined to have content is:
| <#MACRO_BLOCK: "{"
(
"color" // TODO: {color:xx} paragraph {color}
| "section"
| "column"
| "csv"
| "table-plus" // TODO: {table-plus:width=100..} table
{table-plus}
| "code"
| "html"
| "composition-setup"
| "float" // TODO: {float:xx} paragraph {float}
| "cloak"
| "deck"
| "card"
| "show-card"
| "chart" // TODO: {chart: params} table {charŧ}
| "slideshow"
| "slide"
| "note"
| "warning"
| "important"
| "caution"
| "example"
| "docbook"
| "screen"
| "table-plus"
| "info"
| "tip"
| "cache"
| "sql"
| "noformat"
| "panel"
| "sub-section"
| "clickable"
| "tm" // TODO: {tm} inline text {tm}
| "sm" // TODO: {sm} inline text {sm}
| "reg-tm" // TODO: {reg-tm} inline text {reg-tm}
| "copyright" // TODO: {copyright} inline text {copyright}
| "span" // TODO: {span} inline text {span}
| "lozenge"
| "style"
| "div"
| "bgcolor"
| "center"
| "strike"
| "privacy-policy"
| "roundrect"
| "align"
| "iframe"
| "table"
| "table-row"
| "table-cell"
| "th"
| "tbody"
| "thead"
| "ul"
| "li"
| "rollover"
| "fancy-bullets"
| "contentformattingtest"
| "toc-zone"
| "excerpt"
)
<MACRO_PARAMS>
"}"

BTW, this is why my earlier example with {html} worked...
So if you write a macro not in this list, it cannot currently have any content,
only parameters.
I’ve created http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XRENDERING-412
Thanks
