Note the line `There has been one in that time:` is missing.

##markdown

```
##Example Heading
There has been one in that time:
[quote="DeanMarkTaylor, post:1, topic:1"]
anything here
[/quote]

```

##Expected Output

##Actual Output

##Additional notes  
For the markdown without the `[quote ...][/quote]` placing text under the heading works as expected:

```
##Example Heading
There has been one in that time:
Some additional thing

```

Or placing a blank line before the `[quote ...]` line:

```
##Example Heading
There has been one in that time:

[quote="DeanMarkTaylor, post:1, topic:1"]
anything here
[/quote]

```

I tried this in dingus: [commonmark.js demo](http://spec.commonmark.org/dingus/)  
It gave unexpected results for all cases where a blank line wasn’t after the heading.

## Example Heading

There has been one in that time:

> [@New to Discourse? Start here!](https://meta.discourse.org/t/new-to-discourse-start-here/1/65121):
>
> anything here

It now works like an amazing 🚅

> Per our [migration plans](https://meta.discourse.org/t/discourse-commonmark-migration-plans-confetti-ball-balloon), I just enabled [markdown.it](https://github.com/markdown-it/markdown-it) at Meta. It is an excellent [CommonMark](http://commonmark.org/) compliant engine. I expect quite a few edges to be found during this period of testing. Do not open bugs about the new Engine, just reply here. I/we will be updating the top post here with the list of issues and striking out stuff as it is fixed. Current known issues (to be fixed)white_check_mark Onebox vanishes after you start typing and works not-super consistently white_check_mark pending…
