I would agree that this is a much more intuative. In fact the first time 
I created a list in Dokuwiki I tried to do just that, before I 
discovered that it doesn't work.
Couldn't this effect be achieved with small HTML changes?

Something along the lines of

<li><p>The text that spans</p></li>

With the paragraph text inheriting the margin and indent of the <li> 
items. A modification to <li> CSS might be required, I think.
I'm just speculating, as I don't have all that deep a knowledge of css/html.
