Of course, but the issue here is that:
- it happens way earlier and with font defaults. It is very common that a user
will have a 7+ -item list, but very unlikely one will reach 10,000.
- the Roman numeral list jumps to the next tab stop, then back, which does not
happen elsewhere as far as I can see.

But I now understand the right-alignment is not the right solution, and that
the toolbar toggles use the existing tabstop size of the current paragraph
style.
So let's close as "won't fix".
If there is a different change that could help (e.g. promoting one method over
another from the UI, or taking a change of default the other way around...),
let's propose that in a new enhancement request with a clean, precise idea to
start from, and link to the discussion here.

Thanks again, Justin.
