I just discovered the very handy C-* function -- I've been converting 
lists to headlines manually!   But I also discovered a couple of bugs:

If I select a region containing a plain list and then type C-*, org mode 
adds the leading stars but doesn't remove the plain list symbols, for 
example, this:

  * headline
    - list 1
    - list 2

is converted to this:

* headline
*** - list 1
*** - list 2

Also, if I'm at the end of a file so that the region can't be extended 
beyond the end of the last item in the list, then that item isn't 
converted.  In other words, I get this:

* headline
*** - list 1
  - list 2

Thanks,

Scott
