I had a similar problem where I wanted paragraphs to be inside <p>
tags. Also I was wondering if I should store the text into db as HTML
or not. So what I ended up doing was to use Text_Wiki markup and store
that "as-is" to the db. Then I made a helper to transform that to
XHTML with Text_Wiki. Works *exactly* as I want.
