Sorry, I gave the wrong example. Here is an example that shows the
behaviour:

What I want is:

=====
$ rst2pseudoxml < foo.txt
<document source="<stdin>">
    <section ids="first-section" names="first\ section">
        <title>
            First Section
        <paragraph>
            Lorem ipsum, dolor sit amet.
=====

In fact, I'm accessing this document programmatically using a custom
Writer. How can I get the parsing result I want?
