Does anyone else use filladapt mode for filling paragraphs? This thing
is great. It modifies fill-paragraph to handle a wide variety of line
prefixes. See examples below. It's hosted by the author here:

filladapt hasn't been updated since 1998 but miraculously continues to
work, albeit with a few warts. I also get the sense that it's not a
very good citizen since it overwrites some core functions rather than
advising them.
I'm wondering if some kind soul would like to modernize it and add it
to elpa, or possibly bring the equivalent functionality to
adaptive-fill-mode. Unfortunately my elisp skills are quite weak,
otherwise I'd attempt it myself. I think a lot of people would
appreciate the effort.
Examples from filladapt.el:
1. xxxxx
xxxxx
2.1.3 xxxxx xx x xx x
xxx
a. xxxxxx xx
xxx xxx
1) xxxx x xx x xx or (1) xx xx x x xx xx
xx xx xxxx xxx xx x x xx x
a) xxxx x xx x xx or (a) xx xx x x xx xx
xx xx xxxx xxx xx x x xx x
2a. xx x xxx x x xxx
xxx xx x xx x
1a) xxxx x xx x xx or (1a) xx xx x x xx xx
xx xx xxxx xxx xx x x xx x
- xx xxx xxxx or * xx xx x xxx xxx
xxx xx xx x xxx x xx x x x
o xx xxx xxxx xx x xx xxx x xxx xx x xxx
xxx xx xx
Thanks,
