copy listitems

The elements above or below the listitems may be different. A list may also appear more than once in a document. Can anyone provide a method for wrapping listitems as a group with <itemizedlist> to produce this result?

An example is below. I've turned on indentation that you may wish to turn off.


Note that I match those items that have immediate preceding sibling items and do nothing with them, because the first of all sets of adjacent sibling items handles all of the following adjacent ones.

I hope this helps.
