When cutting and pasting list items, it is hard to achieve the intended formatting
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

If I cut items from a bulleted list and try to past them into another bulleted list, the formatting gets confusing:

*Extra empty bullets get left behind when I cut.
*The relationship between an existing list and new items I paste to the end of it can be wonky. Extra line breaks appear, and sub-bullets lost their relationship to each other, so that pressing tab to increase the level of indentation sometimes creates two bullets in a row instead of just increasing the level of indentation.
