It is too bad that the XHTML 2.0 WG has strayed[1], as this is 
supported in XHTML 2.0:

   <section>
       <h>Hierarchy is good.</h>
       <p>Boy, do I miss 'section' elements when I use XHTML.</p>
       <section>
              <h>Nested hierarchy is great</h>
              <p>But a browser can read this as is.</p>
       </section>
   </section>
