This would leave enums as 

  1. Level 1 a
  1. Level 1 b
  1.1.1. Level 2 a
  1.1.1. Level 2 b

etc. 

Does this seem cleaner to you? Also there is the problem of what
to do if someone does....

 - Level 1
 --- Level 3
 -- Level 2

I'm not sure how that could be marked up.

I'm very open for suggestions on the syntax though. I will have to
change it to cope with enum'd lists. I was going to do

  - Level 1
  - Level 1
  
  >- 
  - Level 2
  - Level 2
  
  <-
  - Level 1

or for enums

  1. Level 1
  1. Level 1
  
  >1. 
  1. Level 2
  1. Level 2


  


I also want to eliminate the requirement for a free newline, but I
haven't worked out where this is coming from yet. 


Perhaps you are right. Your syntax would be easier! It's probably 
going to have slightly more far reaching consequencings for re-coding
the styles though.
