As an author, I would like the possibility to declare how many digits a
list can have. An example of a <OL> with four digits.
0001 <li> ... </li>
0002 <li> ... </li>
up to
9999 <li> ... </li>
An example of a <OL> with the spacing of four digits.
1 <li> ... </li>
2 <li> ... </li>
to
10 <li> ... </li>
up to
9999 <li> ... </li>
Also the often requested subitems within one <ol>. Like decimal places.
1.1 <li> ... </li>
1.2 <li> ... </li>
2 <li> ... </li>
3.1 <li> ... </li>
