Yes, list-block could probably help in that situation. But I don't have
title column (though not sure what you mean by title column). Why do I need
to count characters in it?

Actually it would be much better to have some FO xml snippet in list.fo
example, which demonstrates how list items will be aligned if we have list
like this:

1.<some space>Item1
1.1.<some space>Item11
1.1.1.<some space>Item111

having each time <some space> length calculation performed based already on
label length to the left of it.

In my case I get that provisional-distance-between-starts value should be
calculated separatedly for each list label-item pair, cause setting it to
some average/maximum value (for title column?) and folowing then by other
label-item pairs doesn't resolve this issue.
