It can: just move it in manually. Then it will stay there.

Yes:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
* List of important items [0%]
- [ ] Item 1
  - This is an important item.
  - Remember to do the hokey-pokey.
    
    |---+---|
    | A | B |
    | C | D |

- [ ] Item 2
  - This is not as important
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Note that it will be easier if you don't start your table with a rule,
since expanding a fresh "|-" will create the table at column 0.
