1. My feeling is that it would be nice to allow drawers inside a list.
2. I don't think it is important to allow lists inside drawers inside
   lists - you can just say in the docs that this is not supported
   and let users deal with this limitation.
3. What should be allowed is to have lists inside a drawer that is not
   itself in a list.  We need that for logbook entries and the like.
4. I also think that inline tasks inside a list are overkill and would
   overly complicate things.
