This is a good catch; thanks, Colin.  A year ago or more, I probably had
in mind to leave the test as-is, but discovered some complexities around
tagging and URLs.

https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/index.php?61434
https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/index.php?62060

And while looking at a different sort of tag, which might include the
paragraph kind:

https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/index.php?62182

So there is some work to be done here and your change will be necessary
for a while.

Branden
