It's actually a pretty recent addition to Pandoc. You can do spans too! See <https://pandoc.org/MANUAL.html#divs-and-spans>.

Is this something specific to pandoc, github markdown, or what?

You can of course do it manually with divs in your Markdown as well:

````markdown

    -   a
    -   b

and then in your CSS:

````css
div.shallow > ul { /* style here */ }

div.deep > ul { /* style here */ }
````

The main point is that Pandoc doesn't support attributes on most elements, so you have to put block elements inside a div and inline elements inside a span, set the attributes on the div/span and use a child selector in CSS.

No, I'm not saying that.

You could write a lua filter that would identify "shallow" and
"deep" lists, and insert a div with class "shallow" or "deep"
around the list.

Css could then have a rule like .shallow > ul or .deep > ul.

sort of, yes. See the documentation for lua filters on the pandoc
website.
