Looks feasible. Pandoc converts the first html to:

[ BulletList
    [ [ Plain
          [ ... Inlines ]
      ]
    , [ BulletList
          [ [ Plain
                [ ... Inlines ]
            ]
          , [ Plain
                [ ... Inlines  ]
            ]
          ]
      ]
    , [ Plain
          [ Inlines ]
      ]
    ]
]

I.e., the sublist is converted to its own list item. So the filter should 
pick up list, check if any item within them consists of a lone sublist, and 
if so, move it to the previous item. (And best, apply the filter 
recursively to that sublist itself.)
