Yeah, the list implementation in Markdown.pl and PHP Markdown

been thinking about rewriting the list parser in PHP Markdown, but
I'm wondering what to do to not suddenly change a myriad of
documents which may depends on some part of this behaviour, such as:
* item
* subitem
* subitem
* item
* subitem
(Here, no item is indented by four space, should this be a flat list?)
I know people have written lists like the above in their document.
They did it because it produce what they expect in their Markdown
implementation, because the thing is readable and make sense, and
because didn't bother to read the spec.
A list item's parent is the most recent list item whose bullet is
indented less than its own. If there's no such parent, then the item
belongs to a root-level list.

Is there any case where this doesn't do the right thing?
