Thanks. Still I am wondering a bit why anything special at all is
necessary.
Well, I am glad I do not have dangling list items like Word gladly creates.
Thanks. Not sure what you mean exactly by "dangling list items". Is the
worry that there could be a list item, say from a description, that are
easily overlooked? I guess list items and indentations are more visible
in LyX than in word. But still I see the point somewhat.
And I do not feel that the result obtained with LaTeX with a empty list
is very understandable typography. The hassle of adding a dummy element
is less than the risk of having an unintended result IMO.
Yes, the example I gave isn't very practical. But then consider
\begin{quote}
\begin{enumerate}
\item Enumerated stuff
\end{enumerate}
\end{quote}
That seems to be very understandable typography.
