Modularity is good if we have use-cases for it, at least one feature
relying on it.  I wouldn't implement a feature just to add modularity.

I'm not convinced the first report is a bug in the way list are
handled.  The second is a bug in the way headings are transformed as
list items (leaving footnotes in a poor state).  If more modularity
helps fixing these edge cases, then why not.

Of course, I guess you can think of useful customization of list
commands -- perhaps that what we should think about first: would it be
a good thing to allow customization of list commands? what use-case?
