If you write a brand new document, and happen to insert a numbered list 
into it somewhere, it usually works fine. As soon as you try to do 
anything more complex, bizare behaviour results. Lists magically change 
themselves from bullet to numbered, or continue from lists elsewhere in 
the document, and when you try to reset them to start from zero, they 
either don't reset, or they reset but yet other parts of the document go 
wrong. And occasionally, the whole formatting of a section can go wrong. 
I've even seen bits of deleted text reappear overprinted on top of body 
text...
