This was suggested a couple of years ago, and rejected. This would be
confusing. For example, it would not be always possible to "fix" mixed
bullets if mixing was not intended.

You can use two lists to separate positive and negative aspects of
something. IMO, this is also clearer.

Note that this is orthogonal to the issue at hand, so it belongs to
another thread.
