Urgh.  Wouldn't it be better to change the table model here.  We
already have "entrytable!" and "entry".  How about splitting "entry"
into <!element entry (#PCDATA|%inline;)+ > (probably the content model
of a para) and <!element entryblock (...)> (sorry, it's not worth
right now to look up the correct entities for the content model) with
the block level elements?
