I think it is dangerous to change the behavior in such a way that
it will depend on the heading being folded or not.  Definitely org-in-item-p
should not depend on that.  I am still debating with myself if 
org-insert-heading
should.  Maybe only in interactive use or something like that.  Dangerous 
territory.
