When I set org-plain-list-ordered-item-terminator to 'paren like in
"2)"' in the customize interface, I no longer able to use plain lists in
org-mode, but instead get the following error:

,----
| org-at-item-p: Invalid regexp: "Unmatched ( or \\("
`----

In my custom settings, the setting looks like this:

,----
| [snip]                                      
| '(org-plain-list-ordered-item-terminator 41)
| [snip]
`----

Here's the backtrace:

,----
| Debugger entered--Lisp error: (error "Cannot return from the debugger in an error")
|   looking-at("\\([ 	]*\\([-+]\\|\\([0-9]+))\\)\\|[ 	]+\\*\\)\\( \\|$\\)")
|   org-at-item-p()
|   org-metaright(nil)
|   call-interactively(org-metaright nil nil)
`----

And here are my other plain list settings:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(setq org-blank-before-new-entry '((heading . auto) (plain-list-item . auto)))
(setq org-empty-line-terminates-plain-lists nil)
(setq org-cycle-include-plain-lists nil)
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Thanks,
Matt

I do not know, but I do have an idea for making it less necessary to
do.  If a plain list is not recognized unless it is indented, then
erroneous interpretation of column 0 numbers will not happen.  Of
course, they would still happen with text that is indented by
whitespace.

Fixed.

However, bullet cycling also seems to have bugs when this
variable is not equal to t.

Why do you need to change the variable?

Again, sorry for the late reply. Just for the record, I need to change
this variable for to avoid lines starting with a number/period
combination being exported as enumerated lists.

This often happens when I'm citing someting in a footnote. E.g.,

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
[1] Author, /A Very Long Book Title that Stretches to the Line's End/, p. 
101.
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

The "101." above gets exported as item 1 in an ordered list if I don't
set the variable.

Best,

Matt
