It could be version differences of AsciiDoc-to-xmlto toolchain. I think I've listed the versions I use (and the ones currently used to format the copies people get from k.org) elsewhere in this thread. If you are using anything newer, perhaps we are seeing an issue waiting to materialize and you are being a useful coalmine canary.

If the output you showed is the best we could achieve without using constructs that break the versions that are older than what you used but are still in use (e.g. "[horizontal]" and "three-colons"), I would say we have to live with it. It might be suboptimal but it still is readable.

Of course if you can come up with a patch that formats better without breaking older tools, that is an entirely different story. It would be very much appreciated.
