A rabbit pastes a list with care,
Word’s nested numbers settle there.
Blank lines stay, and starts remain,
Zero joins the counting chain.
I hop through HTML, neat and bright,
Then nibble clover by moonlight.

Recognize Wingdings markers without accepting arbitrary characters
When Word HTML places § in an mso-list:Ignore span, trim() leaves it as one character. The current allowlist rejects it, keeps the marker in the paragraph, and clears stack. This can break nesting for later list items.
Do not accept every single nonnumeric code point. That would classify arbitrary labels as bullets. Recognize the known Wingdings markers only when the marker span declares the Wingdings font.
Suggested fix
marker = marker.trim();
+ const wingdingsMarker = markers.some((span) =>
+ /\bfont-family\s*:\s*(?:"Wingdings"|'Wingdings'|Wingdings)(?:\s*[,;]|$)/iu.test(
+ span.getAttribute("style") ?? "",
+ ),
+ );
const numericMarker = marker.match(/^(?:([0-9]+)[.)]|\(([0-9]+)\))$/);

Cool. This is mostly about lists right? Do we know if there are other concepts that we can improve? should we have more testing documents / feed a suite of docx / google docs?
