Speaking of lists, when I showed Org mode this week-end to some "hard LaTeX
guy", when he saw that we could choose between "-", "+" and "*" for itemized
lists and between "1." and "1)" for enumerated lists (whichever the depth
level), he suggested (for enumerated lists) that:

- 2nd level items should be:

    (a) ...
    (b) ...
    (c) ...
    (d) ...

- 3rd level items should be:

      i. ...
     ii. ...
    iii. ...
     iv. ...

    or:

    i. ...
    ii. ...
    iii. ...
    iv. ...

- 4th level items should be:

    A. ...
    B. ...
    C. ...
    D. ...

It is what is implemented (following typographical rules?) for both French and
English (at least) in LaTeX. See:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
\documentclass[english,french]{article}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage{babel}
%
\begin{document}
\newcommand{\test}{%
  \begin{enumerate}
  \item
    \begin{enumerate}
    \item
      \begin{enumerate}
      \item
        \begin{enumerate}
        \item
        \item
        \item
        \item
        \end{enumerate}
      \item
      \item
      \item
      \end{enumerate}
    \item
    \item
    \item
    \end{enumerate}
  \item
  \item
  \item
  \end{enumerate}
}
\test{}
\selectlanguage{english}
\test{}
\end{document}
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Dunno what you think about that, dunno if that's feasible and easy... But
wanted to share with you his point of view...

Best regards,
  Seb
