Beamer inline itemize and enumeration

Hi is this appropriate?

\documentclass[slidestop]{beamer}
\usetheme{Madrid}
\begin{document}


\newcommand{\inlineitem}{%
\leavevmode\usebeamertemplate{itemize item}
}
\newcounter{newenumi}
\setcounter{newenumi}{1}

\newcommand{\inlineenum}{%
 {%
 \setcounter{enumi}{\thenewenumi}%
 \leavevmode\usebeamertemplate{enumerate  item}
 \stepcounter{newenumi}
 \setcounter{enumi}{0}
 }
}

\newcommand{\resetinlineenum}{
 \setcounter{newenumi}{1}
}


\begin{frame}{Test}
 \inlineitem short \inlineitem list test
 \inlineenum test \inlineenum test \resetinlineenum \inlineenum new test
  \begin{block}{in a block} 
  \inlineitem short in a block
 \end{block}
 \begin{enumerate}
  \item normal
  \item 
 \end{enumerate}

\end{frame}

\end{document}

Three new user-commands here: \inlineitem produces just a ball. \inlineenuma inline enumerate label and \resetinlineenum resets it at your will.

For environmentalists:

\documentclass[slidestop]{beamer}
\usetheme{Madrid}

\newenvironment{inlineitemize}{%
 \let\par\relax%
 \def\item{\usebeamertemplate{itemize item}\hspace{1mm}}
 \leavevmode%
}{}

\newenvironment{inlineenumerate}{%
 \let\par\relax%
 \setcounter{enumi}{1}%
 \def\item{\usebeamertemplate{enumerate  item} \stepcounter{enumi}}%
 \leavevmode%
}{%
 \setcounter{enumi}{0}%
}

\begin{document}

\begin{frame}{Test}
\begin{inlineitemize}
\item item
\item 2


\end{inlineitemize}%
\begin{inlineenumerate}
 \item test 

 \item test 

 \item test

\end{inlineenumerate}

  \begin{block}{in a block} 
\begin{inlineenumerate}
 \item test 

 \item test 

 \item test

\end{inlineenumerate}
 \end{block}
 \begin{enumerate}
  \item normal
  \item 
 \end{enumerate}

\end{frame}

\end{document}

I'm sorry to post an answer, but since I haven't reached 50 points yet I can't comment it seems. You can fix the color issue with this:

\newcommand{\inlineitem}{\leavevmode{\color{blue}\usebeamertemplate{itemize item}} }

Probably very crude but it does work for Madrid.
