It's probably a good idea to post the comments both on the wiki page and 
post them on the list... sort of like a short time scale v.s. a long time 
scale. The wiki page will be around for a while, but we'll probably forget 
about this thread in a short while :-)


Anyway... I think we might still be misunderstanding each other... my 
intention is that all the three snippets should be rendered in the same 
way.  To be specific, I'd like:

	* An item
	* Another item
	* A third item with a very long line that keeps on going and going and going and going

to be rendered the same way that

	* An item
	* Another item
	* A third item with a very long line \
	  that keeps on going, and going and \
	  going and going

just like before. In addition, I'd like to be able to write:

	* An item
	* Another item
	* A third item with a very long line
	  that keeps on going, and going and
	  going and going


I don't understand your suggestion of using a right margin though...
