The intention was to make ascii exporter aware about alphabetical lists
instead of behaving in undefined way.

Regarding

Was the intention with this change to remove alphabetical lists from
text (ascii) exporter?

Thats wonderful news! Sometimes this stuff can really surprise you. For
example, the structure of the document created by running `echo "1. foo\n
1.bar\n1.baz\n\t1.lorem"` changes based on the user's **tab-width**!

It seems that COUNTER-SET[1] is not being honored when exporting to utf-8 for
alphabetical lists even though it is honored for numeric lists. When exporting
to html, COUNTER-SET is honored for both.
Test document:
```
# An ordered list starting at 3
1. [@3] foo
# An ordered list starting at 1
