 * Using lists and headings etc within the shortcodes was not working, since the
   plugin wraps things in paragraph tags.
 * I updated the plugin to use divs instead of p tags
 * I thought I might add this here, just in case it helps someone else.

 * Matt, the plugin has been updated with your request. Also, the user can choose
   the container (`div` or `p`).
