Inserting " " after a dd item causes failure

[dcampbell24]

definition lists should have the option to have the form in markdown * word:" " is made up of letters.

The plain text appears the same but the html that is generated looks more like a definition list does in a man page. This is nice if you don't want the ronn generated html and still want to generate html from your markdown source. Also, there should at least be a warning or something so the program does not just fail to work without giving any idea as to why.

The problem was explained to me on irc as,

"looking at the code, it suggests your document has a 'dd' element, without any descending 'p' elements and no children and it expects one of those cases and doesn't check for errors"
