I could not find anything, but the person who wrote that JavaScript
implementation seemed pretty convinced that this was the case
(https://github.com/hoyois/html5outliner/issues/1#issuecomment-4653452).
I figured that having written an implementation he had studied the
relevant sections in considerably more depth than I had and
second-guessed myself. Looks like it is in fact a bug in the program
and not the spec. Thanks for clearing that up!
