Apparently this is easy to do in NN4, where "Styling an <li> directly
only styles the marker." ("Cascading Style Sheets: Separating Content
from Presentation").
But as pandion has suggested the only way I can see to accomplish this
for all browsers is to style the list with a font-weight of bold and
then apply the normal font-weight to the content of each list item.
However - and please correct me if I'm wrong - I think it's better to
use a <span> within a list item than a <p>.
