Unfortunately HTML validators do contain errors. Allowing the absense of
an explicit <form> element is one of those - e.g. you can also use
fieldsets and legends outside forms.

I think the relationship between a header and the content that follows is
implicit enough that everyone will 'get it', we use this mental model
everyday with written material. And, of course, you can create addtional
affordance through the visual design.

If you really need to keep headings and lists together as a unit (for
machine readability, perhaps?) then use a div.
