I only added the checking for plain list item context newly to
orgstruct++-mode.  The rest was there before, largely
undocumented, I believe.

And yes, I am using it a lot, like you in magit log mode for example.

orgstruct-mode I use in programming modes when I write docstrings etc,
but in any text-like mode, I would also prefer the ++ version.
