--- Comment #61 from [email protected] ---
Some experiences from today:
1. Changes to list level in dialog are remembered now. (Thanks for repair
Justin.)
2. DPS (=Default Paragraph Style), OL(=outline level), LL (=list level)
    a. New document, edit DPS, assign List Style, give arbitrary OL and LL
       Actual: first paragraph takes those assignments. 
    b. Press Enter.
       Actual: List level (and numbering) is lost   (standard "list" behavior)
       Expected: List level remains
    c. Press Ctrl+M (clear formatting).
       Actual:  PS settings applied  (OK)

Additional Notes:  
    (Style Inspector does not show any Direct Formatting after step b)
    (Ctrl+M on existing paragraphs (with different outline levels and list
levels applied manually) does not change them (OK).  
    (Changing OL or LL in DPS does not apply "retroactively" to existing
paragraphs (OK)

3.    a. Repeat step 2a (to set up DPS with OL and LL), then make several
paragraphs.
      b. For the last paragraph, press Backspace twice (standard practice to
get out of a list). 
      c. Change settings for OL or LL in DPS.
         Actual: No change to paragraphs  (same as point 2)
      d. Insert new paragraphs
         Actual: PS is not applied to the new paragraphs, until Ctrl+M is used
on the paragraphs.      
         Expected:  I guess I expected that new paragraphs would pick up PS.

4.  The Promote/Demote Outline Level widgets on Bullet and Numbering toolbar
change list level. (this is not your fault; it reveals some long-standing
problems with UI to adjust outline level and list level for paragraphs that
have both).  Could only change outline level using Navigator.

5.  More interesting:   Can use option in meaningful situations.  For example,
two new PS, "Appendix H2" and "Appendix H3" with OL =2 (or 3) and LL = outline
level.  (In the past, it was necessary to manually increase the LL for such PS,
now the correct numbering appears automatically. Very useful). 

One "cloud" in the picture:  Apply "Appendix H3" to paragraph.  Then apply
"Appendix H2" to same paragraph.  Outline Level changes to "2" as expected, but
LL remains at 3.
