Lists not rendering as expected after a paragraph

Hi, we were looking into using this awesome extension for our documentation. One of the main things we wanted to get around is the fact that you in python markdown need an empty line break before the list starts, while you in Github markdown do not.

Visually explained

this markdown:

should render as this:

Looking at this test case, it looks like it is expecting the opposite, a list item to not render as a list item, when it has a paragraph above it.

But using your demo site to preview the expected behavior, it renders as I expect it to.

But when we use the extension, we don't get the expected behavior.

This is addressed by https://github.com/adamb70/mdx-breakless-lists.

Note that I had to set truly_sane = false for the two extensions to work well together. Otherwise, this extension sometimes splits a single list in two.
