I actually like definition lists, but sadly the real nit I'm try to
address is the wrapping.  Maybe I have hack something where a ':' (or
some such) at the end of the first  line of a list entry prevents the
wrap.  In org-mode it would look like a definition list item and it
could be recognized for publishing since definition list are actually
nice.

  - term : (qualifier :)*
