I think maybe we can get around this, sort of, by stating that two
line breaks always end a list.

So this would be a two item list with the second item containing two
paragraphs:

    *   One
    *   Two
    
        Buckle my shoe

But this would be a two item list followed by a code block:

    *   One
    *   Two
    

        Buckle my shoe
