Form me it is quite unclear, what defines a numbered paragraph, when working with attachment 171231 [details] from bug 141398. Is it every paragraph from a paragraph style that contains an ordered list? Or is it only for paragraphs with numbered list? Should be at least be more clear in help-page.

@Seth: I think you've became an expert with lists. Perhaps you can have a look at it?

You are an expert! Thank you for the quick reaction! I also read Mike's comment in Gerrit. I can understand that it might confuse, but without that explanation I'm sure, there is more confusion. I couldn't find a better correct formulation.

If I understand it, this is not a real problem. As far as I see, Dieter wanted some reference to be able to point author of bug 141398 to - but this IMO is based on misunderstanding, when Dieter assumed that Christian Lehmann did not understand that correctly, while in fact Christian Lehmann just wanted to change the filtering behavior of a filtering text box.

In this case, I keep thinking that the proposed change would solve a non-existing problem of a QA person, while not add anything to most users, and instead would make the section cluttered for those most.
