This is the problem. There is no sane way to convert a series of 
translation units from or to bullet list format. Once you decide a 
format, you're in practice stuck forever with that.

Considering that lists are the only real issue with newlines 
(https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T3115 ) and other than that editors 
MUST NOT fiddle with translation unit markers, I'd rather add a warning 
to avoid attempting any conversion between list formats.
