Yes.  However I think I differ a bit on items.  For me in a list like
the following, I would call moving by paragraphs _within_ the list items
linear; so, "Lorem..." → "Cras..." → "Integer..." → "Aenean..." →
"Pellentesque...", and so on.

- Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Suspendisse
  interdum venenatis consectetur. Nulla facilisi. Pellentesque rhoncus
  et est vitae lacinia. Quisque molestie justo nisl, quis dictum dui
  varius id.

  Cras scelerisque accumsan risus ut fringilla. Sed pharetra,
  purus sit amet suscipit sagittis, magna quam commodo ligula, vel
  aliquam diam lectus vel lacus.

  Integer congue felis at enim fermentum pellentesque. Sed eu est
  dictum, rhoncus nulla ac, placerat est. Pellentesque nec ultricies
  sapien. Morbi ac dictum dui.

- Aenean vitae arcu accumsan, aliquam ipsum vitae, laoreet erat. Vivamus
  dapibus libero a felis dignissim, et porttitor elit
  vulputate. Suspendisse mattis lectus quis ante convallis
  pellentesque.

  Pellentesque malesuada massa at eros lobortis
  pharetra. Vestibulum et egestas mauris. Pellentesque justo magna,
  ultrices in faucibus viverra, hendrerit eget justo.

Cheers,
