This is a tricky one. The convention followed in the restructured mode 
for emacs (rst-mode.el), is to highlight files with the extension .rst 
or .rest. I'd rather leave this up to the user to decide (I just use: au 
BufNewFile,BufRead *.rst setf rest).

Send me a nice regexp that matches this and I'll gladly include it! Its 
quite challenging to define syntax regions over paragraphs, and I assume 
that bullets will sometimes contain more than one paragraph (check the 
region I commented out for the 'rstLiteralBlock' - this was reasonable, 
but far less than perfect).
