Personally I'm kind of minimalist, so I'd prefer Creole to be minimalistic too. Limiting lists to one level would surely cut the amount of special cases and unexpected behavior. And would remove the ugliness of the "repeated bullet". Not to mention less complicated parsers and less conflicts with existing wiki markup rules.
I don't really miss them, and think that most of the use cases (apart from maybe TOC) are just hacks to pretty-print a tree structure, which in a wiki belongs rather to the preformatted block or custom syntax.
On the other hand, nested lists are a common feature in
wikis and many users rely on them. Creole can afford increased complexity, more work writing the parsers and maybe some conflicts with existing markup. It's just a question of trade off.
Can't really argue with the majority at the WikiSym, especially when I wasn't even there. In the end, I think either way can work. I know I'm biased myself, so I can't really suggest a good decission. I've written [http://wiki.sheep.art.pl/2006-09-07_wiki more about minimal markup].
By the way, funny how there are some efforts with tables (which I consider pretty advanced and rarely used feature), while there is no mention of definition lists or block quotes, which are used on wiki rather extensively (for dialogues).
