Expected behaviour:

   1. One
   1. Two 
      <verbatim>
      some verbatim text
      <verbatim>
      Two continues
   1. Three
   1. Four

I second this. I need to do this a lot, and must resort to tables.

+1. (That's a voting convention used some places, like the abiword-dev list.)

If somebody tackles this, please consider extending the scope of a list in similar fashion to allow blank lines or <blockquotes> between list elements -- I sometimes prefer vertical whitespace between elements of a list, especially if an element is a long paragraph. Also, I sometimes use <blockquote> tags to insert indented but non-numbered (or non-bulleted) paragraphs between elements of a list, sometimes even nested <blockquote> tags as each set of nested <blockquote> tags increases the indent.

Maybe we should consider a syntax where a list element is always considered a continuation of a previous list unless a list item is specifically identified as an element of a new list using some new TWiki markup. (I haven't tried to think that or the following through.)

Or maybe a list should continue until:

• An item is under a new heading (---+++ blah blah or <h?>blah blah<h?>)
• ???

In any event, I think we specifically need to allow nested lists, like a bulleted list within a numbered list or vice versa.

Sorry, doesn't sound like I'm trying to KISS -- just food for thought.

for what concerns whitespaces in lists, have a look at RicherSyntaxPlugin.

I've done a simple partial implementation of this, limited by nature of TWiki and HTML. I also took the opportunity to make the code more forgiving of missing end of verbatim.
