First, we are talking about ODF1.2 assuming the proposal for 
text:style-override and text:list-id have been accepted.

I think it is;
from the proposal:

Which makes it possible.

As a direct answer to Florian;
the example XML indeed translates into the output as you wrote it.  Which 
means you understand the ideas behind it. So half the work is done, you 
understand the mapping from concepts to numbered-paragraph.
I'm sure you will be able to map it to text:list as their concepts have 
changed little since 1.0
