--- Comment #9 from Heiko Tietze <heiko.tietze at documentfoundation.org> ---
The actual issue is that PS (paragraph style) can be assigned to a LS (list
style), which is typically done for outline headings, see comment 6. If users
change the LS, eg. per right-click List > Numbering Style, it results in an
unexpected state. 

The ticket aims for a discussion whether the command Toggle Ordered List
(shortcut F12) should become disabled on headings (has to be done for all kind
of LS). The dedicated LS for headings is Chapter Numbering (CN) offering a
subset of LS attributes with a fix style ID.

My take: since the restriction to CN does not work well I wouldn't go further
and block LS but step back and use only LS. Effectively it is the same -
however the initial "creation" of the LS could be done per F12 and would become
an edit function later.

The ultimate question is: can we make the chapter numbering comfortable to use
and easy to understand at the same time without too much restriction?
