Nested Counters

The CSS2 recommendation says:-

"... every element that has a 'counter-reset' for a counter X, creates a
fresh counter X, the scope of which is the element, its preceding
siblings, and all the descendants of the element and its preceding
siblings."

I think that "preceding siblings" may be incorrect: surely the reset
counter should apply to siblings which follow the affected element?
