Hi Patrick,

"Until either CSS2 is widely supported or user agents
allow users to control rendering of lists through other
means, authors should consider providing contextual
clues in unnumbered nested lists."

Especially since the information in the compound
numbering could be looked upon as content anyhow.

Another consideration is also that this seems to me,
in this particular case, to contradict

"6.1 Organize documents so they may be read without style
sheets. For example, when an HTML document is rendered
without associated style sheets, it must still be possible
to read the document."

If the numbering is set via CSS2, then without an associated
style sheet the numbering won't match (if, for instance, you're
doing a table of contents with the numbering reflecting the
number given to sections/headings).

Excellent point and a very appropriate concern
if you are thinking of the visitor's need to be
able to follow the organization of the document.

Regards,

Gene Falck
