Feature Request: Wrap all <p>s after a header inside a <div>

[sudo-nano]

I'm currently trying to use CSS to indent my paragraphs to all match the indentation level of the most recent header. As far as I can tell, this is impossible without containing them in a div, since there are not specific enough CSS selectors to do it otherwise.

Current behavior is that this markdown:

## heading 2
text 1 

text 2

### heading 3 
text 3

text 4

gets turned into this HTML:

<h2>heading 2</h2>
    <p>text 1</p>
    <p>text 2</p>
<h3>heading 3</h3>
    <p>text 3</p>
    <p>text 4</p>

I would like it to turn the above markdown into the following HTML:

<h2>heading 2</h2>
    <div>
        <p>text 1</p>
        <p>text 2</p>
    </div>
<h3>heading 3</h3>
    <div>
        <p>text 3</p>
        <p>text 4</p>
    </div>

so that the reasonable task of having text follow the indent of your markdown headers could be accomplished with simple CSS:

h2, h2 + div {
    text-indent: 20px;
}
h3, h3 + div {
    text-indent: 40px;
}
/* repeat for remaining headers */

This is one of those things that I have a hard time evaluating the trade offs of.

I at least looked at zola for prior art on this and they don't seem to do this. Know how other static site generators handle this?

Javascript based static site generators implement it as a rehype plugin, or so I'm told. As far as I know, cobalt doesn't have a plugin API, so we can't do that. What are the downsides of adding 1 div per heading?

I'm not a web dev which means I can't speak to it either direction. With prior art of this being done in a built-in way, I can at least look to what their analysis of the trade offs were.

I'm not sure if there are any prior examples of this, since other static site generators allow users to customize this functionality via addons rather than build it into the core features. As far as I know, the only potential concern is performance impact, which would be negligible in this case.

Does zola, hugo, jekyll, etc or just the javascript ones you referenced?

Note that I want to explore a new architecture for my static site generator where we use bevy-ecs for incremental rebuilds on change and then use an embedded scripting language's integration with bevy-ecs to allow hooks. I'm not at the point of being able to start that effort and will likely do it under another project name.

I'm not sure. I'm having a hard time finding examples of anyone implementing incrementally indenting headers using a static site generator.

Finally found time to check on Jekyll's default behavior. Jekyll wraps the post content itself in a div by default, but does not appear to wrap text under subheadings.
