Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-lists-3][css-counter-styles-3] Request a way for list markers & counters to use "order-modified document order" (#3895)

[`order`](https://drafts.csswg.org/css-flexbox-1/#propdef-order) is only supposed to be used for layout, not for "sorting" or anything that changes the intended reading order of content:

> **Authors _must_ use order only for visual, not logical, reordering of content. Style sheets that use order to perform logical reordering are non-conforming.**

If you want a solution to make it easier to re-order a list in a way that actually re-orders it from a (possibly flattened) DOM perspective, you need to take it up with HTML/DOM. E.g., see https://github.com/whatwg/dom/issues/586 for one proposal.
