I cheat by including emacs-wiki markup in my diary. ;)

You might be able to get that effect by modifying
planner-diary-update-section or planner-diary-get-diary-entries to
prefix "- " before every (useful) line. =) Want to try that out in
your personal config?

You _can_ actually do this already. =) Just override functions or add
new markup rules as you wish. For example, I've recently adopted
box-style entries on my website. I did that by adding a
sacha/planner-markup-notes function that scanned for the .#[0-9]
regexp, narrowed to the note, then did markup. Likewise,
sacha/planner-markup-tasks makes tasks tables instead of lists. <grin>
