Why not <div> or <section> with an appropriate role attribute to provide
its semantics?

My intention was that the <ul> elements would be styled with the border
(or other seperator), rather than their parent <li> elements. If, for
some reason, that's not feasible for the design, then adding a class
attribute to identify the list items for styling is fairly harmless. eg.
<li class="group">
<ul>
<li>...</li>
<li>...</li>
</ul>
</li>
