Add support for nested lists/bullets and indents

Hello! Is anyone currently working on this?
It's a fairly important feature for a site I'm working on to have indented bullets, and Quill seems to fit every other requirement I have for an editor.
If nobody else is working on it I'd love to give this a go myself, though being new to the Quill source I'd appreciate any pointers :)
I don't know of anyone working on this so feel free to have a shot at it. I will warn you it would probably touch a lot of internals and the format system is currently being reimplemented to support custom formats.
This is the only feature preventing me from using Quill. I maintain a project used by many writers and researchers, and this is definitely a very important feature for them. How difficult would this be to implement?
It's very difficult to do correctly and semantically; many other editors simply end up taking shortcuts. The ongoing work on custom formats will provide a much better foundation to implement complex formats like tables and nested lists.
+1, we'd love this
+1 for me too. I miss this feature desperately.
+1 would love this. @jhchen how is the work on custom formats going? Is there a way to do this independently of that work? I might be able to take a crack at it.
+1, for nested lists
and another +1 for tables
Why won't ExecCommand work for indention? I tried this code:
document.execCommand('indent',false,null)
And it appears to momentarily indent, but then it reverts back to the un-indented form. Is there something in Quill that is detecting and resisting this attempt?
+1, I really want to use quill, as so far it seems lightweight, easy to use, with a modern design. However, I really need it to be able to indent and support nested ordered lists or it's a non-starter.
+1 here !
@benbro Yes, that's indeed the same issue. I have this problem with pasting from GDocs. Thanks for the link.
@jhchen,@community : Anywhere I could find something on custom image bullets ?
