Well, then the addition of the list-id attribute doesn't "break the concept that every <text:list> element declares the domain of one list", which was your objection against it.

None. I just find that list-id + list-name is much cleaner and more intuitive (everyone will get it right: the id for identifying the list, the style-name to find the style)
whereas style-override sounds like something that many implementors will just overlook and they'll use style-name to find the style; style-override looks like
a hack, especially if the goal is indeed simply listid-style separation.
