This is Issue 271: http://wiki.csswg.org/spec/css2.1#issue-271

9.2.1 (Block-level elements and block boxes) currently says:

   # [...]. Some block-level elements may generate additional boxes in
   # addition to the principal box: &apos;list-item&apos; elements. These
   # additional boxes are placed with respect to the principal box.

We should make &apos;list-items&apos; an example, since tables also generate an additional box and indeed all block-level elements are capable of generating 
anonymous boxes, depending on their contents.
