Makes sense. I realize I can achieve almost all of what I want by making my TODO items, say, level three headers, "***", then not including \subsubsection in my latex_class definition. Now each TODO item is printed in LaTeX as a separate \item in an itemize list, just as I wanted.
Just one remaining problem, however. The exporter inserts a hard line-break, "\\" after the first line of each of these \item entries. This is fine when there is additional text for that item, but if the TODO item is just one line, this results in unwanted extra white space being inserted between the \item entries.
