Description
Sometimes when I'm in a list I want to have a sub-item of another type. For example, I'm typing an ordered list and I want the subitem to be unordered (as below). It would be nice if the two list-item commands recognized when the row they're in had no content beyond the list marker and switched that marker to the selected type. Right now, they insert a new item marker at _the start_ of the line.
### Demo
1. Item 1
1. Item 2
- sub-item 1
1. item 3

Research direction
Reproduce the Demo in the macOS editor and inspect the two list-item commands that handle ordered and unordered markers. Verify that selecting the other list type on an empty list row replaces the existing marker rather than inserting a new marker at the line start, while non-empty rows keep their current behavior.
