PhpDocumentor

The following docbook-code, using <variablelist> in a tutorial file, does
not get converted to a HTML definition list, as I hoped, but to simple text
lines with <li> elements between them.

<variablelist>
<varlistentry><term>filename</term>
<listitem>Text about filename
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry><term>another filename</term>
<listitem>and some more text.</listitem>
</varlistentry>
</variablelist>

(Full example as a file attachment.)

And there seems to be no way to achieve this with a change in options.ini,
without destroying ordered or itemized lists.

I used Smarty/HandS, but I suppose the same problem is there for all
Converters.

For the title tag there is some special case code in the class Converter -
maybe something similar should be added for the <listitem>-tag, which
sometimes should be converted to <dd>, sometimes to <li> - or even better,
a more general useable mechanism.

(I had a HTML formatted definition list (<dl>), which I converted to
docbook to integrate the documentation with PhpDocumentor.)
