Re: Consecutive plain list items of different types

IIRC I wrote the part about there being two types of lists at the syntax level,
which are bulleted and numbered, descriptive are effectively bulleted in the
context of this behavior, but I think it is fine to say multiple.

With regard to the stated behavior about consecutive being parsed separately
I don't remember writing that part unless as was suggested I mean that they
were fully separate lists, but that wouldn't make sense.

The behavior is that everything at a level is converted to the type of
the first occurring list item at that level.

One wrinkle is that when applied to individual list items org-element
will report the type as written (which is expected) however on export
they are converted to the type of the first occurring item.

So the now-removed sentence might have referred to the org-element behavior.

Regardless, the change is an improvement. Thanks!

Tom
