Put the list in a minipage?

Hi Paul,
That ain't a half bad idea.
Lately I've explored LyX environments with a LatexType of "Command",
which bestows unbelieveable power and configurablity, which I could
probably use to make these lists.
If I did this, I'd probably start from scratch, as described here:

I'm still considering, rather than completely strongarming it by using
a minipage (great idea, Paul) to use some sort of rubber lengths to
bias it against page-splitting, but if I have a 30 item list, it will
split it rather than having almost-blank pages before and after.
You could try adding some kind of page-splitting penalty to the item
commands. Something like that must work. (Or you could try asking on
comp.text.tex. That would almost certainly work.)
