OD I am reading your specification doc and it says:
1.4.1 ... "Existing paragraph's indent attributes overrule the new attributes 
first-line-indent and indent-at of the list level of a list style, which is 
directly applied to the paragraph. In this case the alignment position for the 
list label is the sum of the paragraph's indent attributes first-line and left-
margin. The general indent of the text of the list item is the paragraph's 
indent attribute left-margin." ... 

and 

1.4.2 ... "Existing paragraph style's indent attributes first-line and left-
margin overrule the new attributes first-line-indent and indent-at of the list 
levels of a list style, which is applied to the paragraph style.
The new attributes first-line-indent and indent-at of a list level of a list 
style, which is applied to the paragraph style, are applied under the following 
conditions:
* The paragraph style has no own indent attributes first-line and left-margin 
specified.
* The paragraph, which has this paragraph style applied1, has no own indent 
attributes first-line and left-margin specified." ...

This is clearly not how it has been implemented. All of my existing paragraph 
indents have been reset to "0" for all of my bulleted text. 

Regardless of whether it is in the specification or not, it is obviously not 
acceptable to implement bullets and numbering in a way that ignores current 
paragraph indentation. This would imply that the user would need to setup and 
apply different bullet and numbering styles separately for each indented text 
styling. This is both onerous and ridiculously over complex. 

Also if I may add Items 2.1, 2.2.1 and 2.3 are completely unacceptable! In this 
section it is clearly being stated that a properly bulleted and laid out 
document sent to a user of an early version of OOo will not render that 
bulleting correctly as all of the settings will be returned to "0." That's 
worse than anything MS Word has ever done in my experience!

Personally, once again I am uninstalling OOo 3.x for the 4th time (including go-
oo.org builds) and returning to 2.4.
