Thank you, JBF, for your precise explanation of how to make such a numbering.
Thank you also for your advice to create a list style for hierarchical
numbering since this can be more easily reused in the same and even in other
documents after adding ti to my standard template.

Maybe one should add an example to the documentation, where the top level is
e.g. numbered with Roman numerals, the next lower level with Arabic numerals,
then the next with upper case letters, and the next lower level with lower case
letters. 

If there had been such an example, I would not have been so hung up on the spot
and would not have seen a bug there.
