Bug in Plain-lists operation

Bug in Plain-lists operation

[Harald Weis]

There seems to be a bug in the operation of Plain lists.

The manual says:
"Indentation also determines the end of a list item.  It ends before
the next line that is indented like the bullet/number, or less."

The last two lines of the example (the `He' line and the `But' line)
do not behave that way during the FOLDED_CHILDREN_SUBTREE cycle.

Thank you in advance.

Please, could somebody out there be so kind and check whether 
I am right or wrong ?

Hi Harald,

you are correct, this is in inconsistency.  The limit for the extend of the item given in the documentation only applies for structure editing, not for folding.  This is very hard to fix because outlining requires a strictly hierarchical structure of the document.  Folding of items is only a hack.
