Feature request: Unicode bullets

Posted by jcsalomon on

I’ve been using plain-Unicode text for lists, e.g.:

Project Changelog
=================

Release 4 (2013-07-02)
• Connect the sanafratz to the grepsling
• Hypercharge the whizding

Release 3 (1988-05-04)
• Check for loose wires in the kugelator

Release 2 (1988-04-01)
• Collect runaway monkeys
• Clean up ketchup spill
 
Release 1 (1987-12-15)
• Launch satellite

This almost translates to AsciiDoc, except I need to downgrade the source from using real bullet points (U+2022 •) to ASCII asterisks. ☹

May I request that AsciiDoctor be extended to recognize Unicode bullets as input for un-ordered lists?

(This is in a way the converse to ‹https://github.com/asciidoctor/asciidoctor/issues/957›.)
