|
| how weak?

I just had another look at this and IMO the list version is correct as
it is now. This environment is a hack! And to get the label width
correctly you have to set Label with in Layout->Paragraph.
Why do we need this list environment after all?
A description is basically the same.
btw. It is possible to make the list envir smarter so that you don't
have to set the Label width manually, this would require us to output
the widest label to the .aux file and run latex a second time to get
it right.
