I agree with you I have to work on the HTML structure. For instance I 
recently uploaded an interview formatted as a big <dl/> list. In its 
current development our software considered that definition list to be a 
single element to comment since it was enclosed by a single <dl></dl> 
tag whereas it would make much more sense to break it on each <dt/> 
</dd> pair.

The previous solution doesn't solve the arbitrary slicing issue, and we 
will need to define a syntax for that. It is still unclear to me what 
those markups could be. Do you have anything in mind?

Best,
