I suggest to set the customize option `LaTeX-insert-into-comments' to
nil. You will get the expected behavior then.
I'd say that the default value of t of `LaTeX-insert-into-comments' is
one of the strangest defaults of AUCTeX :-)

It seems that it will be useful in docTeX mode. But I personally agree
that it isn't in most LaTeX documents.
To developers: I propose to change the default value of
`LaTeX-insert-into-comments' to nil. What do you think about it? It is
set to t in docTeX mode anyway.

I'd like to confirm your intention. It seems that you are saying that
"When I type M-RET in a line with only whitespace charactares, the \item
shoule be placeed in that line, not the line created anew below that
line." If so, I think it is a reasonable request.
