Should it be only possible as an alphabetic style hack ? In fairness, many of the instances I have seen do involve government documents which have other stuff prefixing the number e.g. <identifier>-000X (e.g. the ISN numbers in the WikiLeaks Gitmo files) but it otherwise seems a reasonable scenario for number lists. Some examples in the wild wouldn't hurt though.
