Re: [css3 lists] 'Real counters'

As far as I know -- and this is the way we've implemented it -- there is 
no implicit counter-reset for list-item, only an implicit 
counter-increment, which may lead to an implicit counter-reset if there 
hasn't been one yet (eg. on a parent <ul> or <ol> element).

By this logic, I don't think it makes sense to talk about an implicit 
list-item counter interacting with a "real" list-item counter. There are 
just counters, some of which may be called list-item, and some of which 
may increment automatically on certain boxes.

Best regards,

Michael
