Ah.  It might indeed be nice to have such a tag, since it would make
long nested lists more compact, for people who don't like having to do
the following.

 - A line.

   Another line in the same list item.

Looks like we need to discuss another markup addition.  How about we
use the <br> tag for this, which would get translated to "\\" in
LaTeX, and so on?

Then people could do the following.

 - A line<br>
   Another line in the same list item.

One thing that worries me is that I seem to recall that some browsers
ignore <br> when nested just after a <p> or just before a </p> in
valid XHTML 1.0.  Can someone verify whether this is so?
