Over-zealous ul tag

Reported by Paweł Gościcki | October 11th, 2008 @ 08:32 AM | in 4.2.0

I'd expect the following to produce a strong tag inside a paragraph:


>> RedCloth.new("*- I'd expect it to be a bolded paragraph.*").to_html
=> "<ul style="vertical-align:middle;">\n\t<li>I&#8217;d expect it to be a bolded paragraph.*</li>\n</ul>"

Textile 2.0 (http://textile.thresholdstate.com/) produces:


<p><strong>- I&#8217;d expect it to be a bolded paragraph.</strong></p>

I know the '-' following '*' is treated as a list attribute (giving vertical align), although I don't quite like it behaving this way. RedCloth 3.04 was in line with Textile 2.0 and produced a strong tag inside a paragraph.

While working on the workaround I've found another interesting case of this:
```
>> RedCloth.new("blah\n*- Yes?*").to_html
=> "<p style="vertical-align:middle;">blah</p>\n<ul>\n\t<li>Yes?*</li>\n</ul>"
```
Notice how the vertical-align style got assigned to the wrong tag (might be another bug?).

Btw: I haven't found anything about vertical-align style modifier in the official documentation.

I guess I've got an simillar encoutner with the ul tag:

@@@ruby RedCloth.new("222 Something I would expect to be just a little bit emphasized").to_html => "
- \n\t
- Something* I would expect to be just a little bit emphasized
- \n
"
```
where

@@@ruby
>> RedCloth.new(" *222 Something* I would expect to be just a little bit emphasized").to_html
=> "<strong>222 Something</strong> I would expect to be just a little bit emphasized"
```
gives the expected result

(from [05cd533f035fe68095fac60540107b2d84cca3ec]) Removed vertical alignment in lists. It doesn't make sense and it conflicts with other things. [#73 state:resolved] http://github.com/jgarber/redcloth/commit/05cd533f035fe68095fac6054...
