Steps to Reproduce
Parsing https://lindenbergsoftware.com/en/notes/bringing-balinese-to-ios/index.html leads to this issue (see: https://github.com/Ranchero-Software/NetNewsWire/issues/1739)
Detailed Description
It messes up the post formatting.
Possible Solution
Update the list of non-convertable parent elements to include li.
If leaving out li is intentional, I'd like to figure out another fix.
It’s not just li – the same article also uses span within figcaption, and the HTML spec allows span wherever phrasing content is allowed. It seems span should only be converted if there’s no element among its ancestors that can contain phrasing content.
