html ol list styles not converting

Hello,

I have tried to construct several html documents that have nested 
ordered lists in them and to specify the numbering style in various 
ways, such as:

<ol style="list-style-type:lower-roman">
<li>first</li>
<li>second
<ol type="A">
<li>uno</li>
<li>dos
<ol>
<li>ichi</li>
<li>ni</li>
<li value="9">san</li>
</ol>
</li>
<li>tres</li>
</ol>
</li>
<li>third</li>
<li>fourth</li>
</ol>


...and try to use AbiWord to convert them on the command line to .doc 
files.  I have a need to specify the format of the numbering scheme that 
each level of the list will use (Decimal, Alpha, Upper Roman, Lower 
Roman, etc...)  Regardless of how I specify this in the html, AbiWord 
ignores and produces a .doc file that will list them as:
     1. first
     2. second
         2.1. uno
         2.2. dos
             2.2.1. ichi
             2.2.2. ni
             2.2.3. san
         2.3. tres
     3. third
     4. fourth

I have tried: <li value="17">, <ol type="i">, <ol 
style="list-style-type:lower-alpha">... nothing works.  Opening the 
resulting .doc (RTF) file, I can find the \listtabletemplate and see 
that the value \levelnfc0 is specified for each level.  Tough I think 
that this is something in the reading of the HTML.  If I convert html to 
html with a different output file name, the new file doesn't have the 
specified numbering style either.

Is there anyway to preserve the ol numbering from an html document?

Thanks for any help,
Seth
