For my personal use I don't care much as long as there are
ordered/enumerated and unordered/plain lists to choose from, after all
only the exported file is for public consumption. :) However I
strongly feel _against_ the '*' syntax. Its too close to a headline.
It is also unusable if one chooses not to use indentation for the text
under a headline (e.g. below). I often prefer this as deeply nested
(say, level 4) headlines often start to run out of columns due to
wrapping.
** Heading
Some list
* list item 1
* list item 2

This is pretty much the reason I switch list types. Something like:
1) some broad point
+ Case 1
- comment on something of note
+ Case 2
2) another broad point
That said, I would probably use the customize option.
