Ok, so order isn't important.

You want to add a closing DFN tag by the way. (To the example.)

Well, the draft states (this is SAMP):

# Contexts in which this element may be used:
#     Where strictly inline-level content is allowed.

So it may only be used in strictly inline-level context, right?

How can otherwise ever apply:

# Content model:
#     When used in an element whose content model is only strictly
#     inline-level content: only strictly inline-level content.
#     Otherwise: any inline-level content.

..?

Like

  <q>foo bar and then <cite>Ian</cite> said:
   <blockquote>
    <p>Well, I don't want to go into details right now...</p>
    <p>... but this looks like a very ugly markup construct...</p>
   </blockquote>
   however, he was of course wrong, as this kind of nesting is actually
   kind a cool, not?</q>

..? It looks terrible imho. Not something you put inline or so.
