I just thought of something different that might deal with Miek's issue: change the name of the element to <tbr>. That will prevent people who "know" what <br> "means" from expecting it to work because <br> doesn't exist.

If, later, we want to add <br> for running text (with lots of description of what it will and will not do to displayed RFCs), we can do so then.
