By the time I find my way through the code, Nicolas will have solved it 10
times over.

Are you saying that the patchwork server introduced this? Or that the
patchwork server should solve it? In the case I stumbled upon (a Worg
file), the patchwork server is nowhere in sight, I think: the change was
(I'm guessing here) directly committed, so maybe the original writer had
auto-fill turned on, but maybe not and just typed it that way. So
neither the patchwork server nor making auto-fill smarter would provide
a guaranteed solution. But maybe there is no such thing.

Perhaps a heuristic in html export to just take care of the error: if
it looks like a numbered list item but there is no item body, bail and
assume it's part of the text. Or a combination of that together with
the item number > 1. Would that work?
