Hi Eric,
I think long descriptions are _very_ unusual (it's called "definition
list" (<dl>) in HTML and "definition term" (<dt>).
I used to do this here, before those lists were supported directly in
Org-mode:
- *Bold longish term* \\
Description of the bold longish term.
I bound this function to a key:
(defun sr-insert-org-dd-item ()
(interactive)
(let ( (in (read-from-minibuffer "Definition list DT item: ")) )
(newline-and-indent)
(insert (concat "+ *" in "* \\\\"))
(newline-and-indent)))
I remember I had to set `org-plain-list-ordered-item-terminator' to `t'
to make this work correctly.
This was added in 2008-02-25 and removed, when Carsten added the support
for the definition lists. And I never missed it.
Sebastian
