It may not be the most elegant way to do it, but it works for me to go
ahead and compose the list and its surrounding paragraphs with paragraph
breaks at the end of each list item. After starting the next paragraph,
go back and select the list items *only* and apply a style that has the
amount of space you want between list items (as opposed to the amount of
space you want between other paragraphs). This can be a modification of
the style you used for the rest of the piece you are writing.
Then, if you need to add another item to the list (or add an item in the
middle), it will pick up the spacing for the list items instead of your
standard for other paragraph breaks.

this
sort of tinkering?
