Sorry, I *think* I added that comment, when I changed the code to support some
sort of numbering used by German lawyers. I'm not an expert on unicode, but I
remember that before changing those lines my numbered lists started somewhere
16 or 17 chars before 'A', thus showing me some special chars. Probably the way
I did this was very stupid - sorry!
