Numbering and List paragraph styles should have numbering style by default

Numbering and List paragraph styles should have default numbering style other than None. It is quite weird to have no numbering by default when selecting Numbering X style in Stylist. Separate properties such as numbering make things difficult when you want to control your paragraph with styles. You can have a paragraph that has a Numbering 2 style, but at same time has Numbering 5 style selected from numbering styles list. So you have to check numbering styles list if there is a overriding selection. Styles should be first way to format paragraphs and all properties should be associated to styles and last way is to make separate formatting.
MRU->FL: something to consider for next numbering enhancement. the mantioned Paragraph styles could have a numbering style by default. The big competitor does it in a similar manner and already offers para styles, which automatically start a numbering.
