Your > suggested *-symbolic naming scheme seems like a reasonable way to handle this. Apologies in advance if this is out of line. I just noticed that the 3.0 list specification document http://www.w3.org/TR/2002/WD-css3-lists-20021107/ now has issues embedded. I am requesting that this issue be added to http://www.w3.org/TR/2002/WD-css3-lists-20021107/#list-content as an issue while the document awaits an editor. Hope this helps, Charles Belov SFMTA Webmaster www.sfmta.com/webmaster
