Maybe not really against Emacs grain, but it is certainly not
common to have such a command. In fact, we have one, C-a, if
turned on with org-special-control-a.
The problem I am seeing really is that the structure of a list
in org-mode is *defined* by indentation. So there is no
clean way to have TAB automatically do the right thing,
certainly not with indent-region. So all this discussion
can be about is what a sensible default can be - and you
will have to create the structure yourself anyway.
In this way, I am now tending to agree that a flat list default
makes sense.
