this should be really be added as a feature, along with text ident.
For anyone requiring a workaround today,
however, the following doesn't take too much time to set up and populate:
1. Isolate a sample line of text in a text frame, and set the text frame type of "Auto Height".
2. Create a text frame (or a graphic) for the a bullet in position to the left of the line of text.
3. Select both elements and create a component.
4. Duplicate the new component and offset vertically, one or more times.
5. Select the set of components and group.
6. Set the group to a vertical stack (with even spacing).
You can then drag-copy additional items within the stack to extend the list.
When a list item is longer or shorter, the auto height frame will adjust and the stack will automatically re-space all items.
