Love the + thing. If you think of lists and sublists hierarchically rather than nested then we do have a parallel, the # headers!

Ordered list:
+ List item one
+ List item 2
++ Level 2 item 1
++ Level 2 item 2

Unordered list:
* List 1
** Deeper
*** Maximum deepitude

And it maintains the whole "read the first 3 characters to determine what this is" rule. No extra tabbing or spacing to get in the way and follows similar conventions to the headings.
