Would you agree to striking out the "Note that the numbers must start at 1 in each section, and must proceed in order and without skipping numbers" rule from the =over/=back spec for numeric =items?
No, because that's still true for numeric =items. What I've implemented is a rule that coerces numeric-seeming =items into being text =items.
PS On a related note, I don't understand the whole "=item 1." thing. Is that to say that "=item 1." should be considered numeric and equivalent to "=item 1"? If so, why is this exception in the spec?
I'm not sure what you're asking.
It is my intention in the spec to mean that the two following numeric lists should be considered synonymous:
=over
=item 1.
Puzzles and toys
=item 2.
Games and candy
=back
and:
=over
=item 1
Puzzles and toys
=item 2
Games and candy
=back
