I would be forced to worship you like a hero if you were to introduce 
something to do this. I was looking for a way to do it yesterday, and 
gave up with a not very good compromise. (I was actually surprised that 
* A bullet point[[<<]]
More text on the same bullet point.

didn't work, only:
* A bullet point[[<<]]More text on the same bullet point.

did work. It seems to break the general ignore-linebreak trend (which I 
am used to and love as though it were my own from writing a lot of 
LaTeX:) Of course, I guess you can take it to the same extremes, due to 
the not guarenteed unique markup that LaTeX has (i.e. you can do the 
equivalent of:
* bullet 1 * bullet 2 * bullet 3 
as LaTeX uses \item))
