Wow! This testing you are doing is a great help for all the developers. Thank you, I was going to do it myself after Creole 0.5.
I just don't understand the comments you've written here. I did my own test: http://helios.wmid.amu.edu.pl/~sheep/cgi-bin/index.cgi/BoldAndList and I can't see any difference from the "sample" rendering, especially no backslashes or missing newlines(?).
Update: Ok, I see now, the sandbox link in Engines is to some old test wiki I left lying around. Sorry about that, fixing it now.

The PEAR Text_Wiki sandbox should work now. The two backslashes before the list were taken with all following newlines and interpreted as a single break...
Dashes for lists are also supported, experimentally.
Very good idea, this testing!
