That still leaves you with no way to put bold text at a beginning of a paragraph (which is a pretty common case).
Actually, shouldn't the "bold at the beginning of a paragraph" use case be better (semantically) handled by a level 6 heading styled so that it flows together with the paragraph text? Just wondering... :)

A list should beginning at level 1, with a single star or sharp. You could have a paragraph
starting with {{{##atan2## is a function which should be known by all electrical engineers}}}
which headings wouldn't solve.
I understand this is a restriction, but probably more benign than other limitations on mixing
(or not) lists and preformatted blocks or tables. (Sad remark: of course, double-sharp markup
is likely to be rejected by the current poll, so maybe it isn't the right place or time or I'm not
the right person to think about that).

Polls are to "get the feel of what people think", not for accepting or rejecting proposals. We don't vote here.
I already restart lists on empty lines -- I didn't even thought about doing it any other way, so I probably didn't understand you well.
Yes, always starting lists with a single star/sharp solves most of the use cases, and basically only leaves the pretty rare problem of weird line breaking, which can be worked around by breaking the line differently anyways -- no sense introducing special escape characters for that.

I meant that:
{{{
This is a paragraph
* with a line which begins with a star, another one with a hyphen (here it is:
-1), and a last one with
=.
* And here is the beginning of a list
= Title
}}}
And the same for tables, preformatted blocks (to be distinguished from inline nowiki), etc.

Neat.
Inly it's even more artificial than a space after bullet, isn't it? I'm preparing styles for many wikis, and one of frequent requirements is that there is no empty space between a paragraph and following list. They say: if I want an empty line there, I will make it with a BR, but most of the time I don't want it. I even argued for the first two or three times this came up, but then given up -- it's their wiki, after all.
Just one particular use case, not to dismiss this entirely, of course. Still spaces seem saner to me and not as arbitrary.
