I would agree with Paulo about the symbolic ordering but unfortunately the
ancient Greek numbering is still in use today here in Greece. So you
probably can imagine that if someone is printing an insurance policy with a
list of legal stuff you have to be a little formal.
But to cheer you a little bit up, since it seams that there might be only a
few (or maybe I am the only one ??? LOL) Greek who are using iText, there is
probably no immediate need of an alteration of the GreekList class.

I was familiar with the ancient Greek numbering (my wife knows a bit about
ancient Greek and Latin and I had seen this before) but I think that the
numbering here should be seen as a symbolic ordering rather than something
more formal.
