Is this still an issue with the 3.40 release?  I remember that Peter
K. Lee tweaked planner-publish a bit just before the release.

I think that some of the nested tags were renamed in the
aforementioned changes to work around this.

One issue with recognizing nested tags of the same name is that
example/QuickStart.muse uses constructs like
=<literal><literal></literal>= in order to get the text "<literal>"
printed correctly in monospace.  This would be something we'd have to
take into consideration.
