More questions on tags

How do the line break tags (<BR> and <L>) fit in with the pararagraph
container? I can see authors using these tags to control the appearance
of their document using their favourite browser, but losing the
structure of the document.
To give a specific example consider a document containing a list of
people in an orgnisation
Staff List
Prime Minister
John Smith
Ministers
Douglas Hurd
Kenneth Baker
...
The author on seeing this rendered as:
Prime Minister
John Major
Ministers
Douglas Hurd
Henneth Baker
may be tempted to write:
Staff List
Prime Minister
John Smith
Ministers
Douglas Hurd
Kenneth Baker
...
or
Staff List
Prime Minister
John Smith
Ministers
Douglas Hurd
Kenneth Baker
...
These may look nicer, but the definition of the paragraph is lost.
Any comments?
