Hello,

Thanks. Some comments follow.

The above is fragile, because pressing <C-c C-c> on an item will
"repair" the bullets. Therefore, you cannot support mixed bullets in the
same list.

Could you expound the docstring? Arguments are missing, and "normalize"
is vague.

The above will fail if `org-list-two-spaces-after-bullet-regexp' is
non-nil. You should compare the trimmed bullet with "+".

Anyhow, relying on mixed bullets is not great…
