[Docutils-develop] Formatting bulleted list of email addresses

[Bill B. <bb...@co...>]

Say I want to do a section that contains nothing but a bulleted list of 
people, with each person being a mailto: link.

How should that be formatted?

=========================
People
------

* `Bill Bumgarner`__
__ mailto:"Bill Bumgarner" <bb...@co...>

* `Joe Smith`__
__ mailto:"Joe Smith" <jo...@fo...>
==========================

The above causes output like:

/tmp/foo.txt:5: (WARNING/2) Bullet list ends without a blank line; 
unexpected unindent.
/tmp/foo.txt:5: (WARNING/2) Anonymous hyperlink target contains 
whitespace. Perhaps a footnote was intended?

__ mailto:"Bill Bumgarner" <bb...@co...>
/tmp/foo.txt:8: (WARNING/2) Bullet list ends without a blank line; 
unexpected unindent.
/tmp/foo.txt:8: (WARNING/2) Anonymous hyperlink target contains 
whitespace. Perhaps a footnote was intended?

__ mailto:"Joe Smith" <jo...@fo...>
/tmp/foo.txt:: (ERROR/3) Anonymous hyperlink mismatch: 2 references but 
0 targets.
See "backrefs" attribute for IDs.

If i remove the spaces from the mailto URLs (bummer-- anyway to format 
mailtos as shown above??):

/tmp/foo.txt:5: (WARNING/2) Bullet list ends without a blank line; 
unexpected unindent.
/tmp/foo.txt:8: (WARNING/2) Bullet list ends without a blank line; 
unexpected unindent.

If I put a newline after each * line, the resulting HTML has each 
bullet in its own <ul></ul> block.  Why would the anonymous hyperlink 
cause that?  The anon link should be invisible to the structure of the 
doc, I would think.
