Is there any way to defeat the fact that whitespace (line breaks) interferes with numbered lists (marked with the # sign) ?
Lack of line breaks makes for difficult-to-read source content. Some of my folks are complaining.
Thanks, Carlton

I know what you mean, but at this time no, there is nothing.

I created an extension for a site that allowed for better spacing between list elements without breaking the list. Just add a div with spacing information inline with the list element, something like:
# Ordered list item<extraspacing>10</extraspacing>
where 10 is the px for the extra spacing. You can also do indented notes and other cool stuff within ordered list, including tables, without breaking the numbering.
Alternately, MediaWiki support the HTML ol start=whatever tag if you want to manually fix the numbering:
# Item 1 # Item 2 Extra spacing
<ol start=3><li>Item 3 <li>Item 4
breaks wiki formatting, though - which is why I choose extensions.
