Since nobody objects to [[Multiline List Items]], can we add it?

As I already wrote, I second the proposal, Yves. The reasons to have multiline paragraphs stand also for multiline lists (and multiline blockquotes etc.).

But I would also like Creole to continue suggesting the option for blog-style linebreaks.

Multiline lists would be a useful feature - the question is how many engines already support it and if it would introduce conflicts - so simply adding it would be to early I think. We need more research on this.

There will be conflicts anyway, and it isn't the first time we have to decide...

For blog-style linebreaks, I've added them as an option to [[Nyctergatis]].

I am in favor of tilde as escape character, but the current description of it seems to be a Creole-only (or ivory-tower) approach. I think we all agree that Creole currently only describes basic markup, and I personally believe that any useful wiki will need extensions. Most of you seem to be against a [[generic extension container]] which would simplify integrating extensions. As a result, Creole must expect //any// markup - and this needs to be escaped. I believe this is incompatible with negative statements as to what may **not** be escaped.

Unfortunately in my wiki experience the most frequent need for escape character is to escape linking in those wikis preferring CamelCase for linking (as this Creole-Wiki does). Thus even tilde in front of alphabetical characters must be escaping.

I don't known whether making it explicit, that only-this list needs to extended by each individual Wiki, or not giving such a list, or perhaps giving this list only as example is best way forward.
