I didn't say at the beginning of line but before _item's body_. The tag in a description list (or a timer list) isn't considered as the body of the item, so my point is still valid. It would be the same with a checkbox. The advantage of this behavior is that M-RET will (or should) never break list structure. Imagine M-RET in the middle of a checkbox or an item tag.
