It's not as consistent as I first thought. It doesn't always happen. For
example:

  ----
  [[Verbatim(This is verbatim text)]], whereas this isn't.

generates

  <hr>
  <p> This is verbatim text, whereas this isn't. </p>

while

  ----

  [[Verbatim(This is verbatim text)]], whereas this isn't.

generates

  <hr>
  <p> </p>
  This is verbatim text<p>, whereas this isn't. </p>

Shouldn't the same HTML (preferably as in the first case) be generated
for both cases?
