Hi Arved-
I submitted patches against 20.1 to do an effective
keep-with-next on list-item-label and list-item-body,
except I assumed an implied keep-with-next on
list-item-label. I would be glad to work with bodo on
this time permitting. It would probably be best, so
that there are not two different pieces of code
floating around doing nearly the same thing.
