I see.  

So when creating an element with interpreted content (that is given as
plain string), I use

  - headlines :: (section nil "foo")  

  - others :: (paragraph nil "foo")


or should it rather be

  - headlines :: (section nil (paragraph nil "foo"))

?

ups ... of course.

One more question:

the :tag property of items is parsed as list (of sec. string(s)) - is it
sufficient for interpreting to give it a plain string: tag: "foo"
instead of tag: ("foo")? It seems to work ...
