Original/Now:
	* bullet level 1
		* bullet level 2

Suggested:
* bullet level 1
** bullet level 2

I think the new style does make sense as it is slight fiddly getting the number of spaces correct. Might be worth adding in addition to current mechanism. Thoughts?

We could add two other shortcuts as well:

*N which is equalivent to * N times. and *. which repeats the previous * level or gives just one level.

eg.

*10 item is
********** item is

and
** item
*. another item 
is
** item
** another item

Hmm. I'd like that for the first level, but not for the the deeper ones. Writing

* Important item
*** Less important
********* micro-mini item

---+ Very Important Header 

---+++++++ Very Un-important Header

I'm proposing (and already using) this syntax:

### Very Important Header ###

__Important Header__

*Smaller Header*

_Unimportant Header_

For me, I doesn't interfere with the regular bold and italic syntax, as PeterThoeny maintained in AutomaticallyNumberedHeadings. To the contrary, it seems quite naturally to write a line of its own and then bold it accordingly. The (old) TWikiDocumentation actually mimicks headlines using lines surrounded by __

See also BetterLists for other discussion around bullets. I do not recommend to go for the syntax with stars at the beginning of the line because it could have unwanted side effects. People sometimes paste text from other places into a TWiki page and it's possible that the first char happens to be a star.

If we add the new syntax then with a required white space, i.e.

 * bullet level 1
 ** bullet level 2

However, my preference is to relax the existing rule to allow arbitrary number of spaces as explained in BetterLists, i.e.

 * bullet level 1
  * bullet level 2
	  * bullet level 3
