Re: [office] style:list-style-name and list-id

["Florian Reuter" <freuter@novell.com>]

So now I'm totally confused.

Isn't Olivers proposal explicitly making a relationship between the style name of a text:list and its counter domain?

You disagree to Olivers proposal?

Being among those who wrote the original list definition: While office 
application in fact may use the list-styles to set up counter domains, 
it was our intention to abstract from that, and to use the list 
structure as in HTML to set up counter domains instead. So if this 
differs from the office application behavior, it does so by intention.
I further have some concerns to use list-styles names to set up counters 
for <text:list>s, since the counting of lists is already described the 
list structure.
