Yes, this happens if the lists in the source and in the destination

documents have the same attributes.

When copy-pasting in the same document, the result is the same as in MS Word

(list numbering continues even if there are some unnumbered paragraphs

between numbered paragraphs).

But I agree, in the case of different documents this is not good.

Currently this may be fixed by explicitly setting value "1" to the first

list marker of the pasted document.

I'll think how to solve this problem. Probably - by assigning random unique

IDs to lists (so that lists in different documents will not be merged in one

when pasting)
