Such a proposal is not a problem per se, right?

Let's suppose that we create everything as we do now.
Further, let's not change current Outline Numbering feature.
Now let's add two loext elements to both paragraph style (pointing to list
style level) and to list style level (pointing to paragraph style). That hasn't
yet changed the structure? Only added extended property.

Now let's change current UI logick: in case user wants to apply a paragraph
style, we additionally check that extended property, if set -> apply not only
list style, but also its associated level to generated list (the list is
already generated now when a list style is associated with paragraph style,
correct?). If we want to change level of a list with a list style in UI, then
we look at its extended property and if set, also set the paragraph style
associated with wanted level. And the same for other UI actions. But the end
result of each action is usual ODF structure.
