If contents are already interpreted, 

  - anything :: "foo"

is sufficient, I think. However, when "anything" is either item or
footnote-definition, and contents start with a paragraph,

  - anything :: (paragraph nil "foo") 

is better due to special handling of the first line.

("foo") is equivalent to "foo". ("foo") allows to insert objects, e.g.

  ("foo " (bold nil "bar"))
