I'm aware of the validation issue, but of course we can't assume the email link 
is
the only thing in the paragraph. One could reproduce the whole block-level 
element
(say, paragraph), but that would really complicate the writer, and make all the 
pages
larger, so I'm not inclined to do it.

If validation is important to you, use --email-obfuscation=none or --email-
obfuscation=references, and then you won't get the javascript.

Note that pandoc can't guarantee valid xhtml anyway, because markdown allows 
you 
to insert raw HTML, which may or may not validate...
