When a numbered <ol> list is copied to the clipboard, the generated item numbers are not copied to the clipboard with the rest of the text. This isn't the behavior that most users would expect, and is especially troublesome when the copied text contains references to item numbers, like "skip to step 23".
Firefox does copy list item numbers to the clipboard, which I think is preferable.
The URL is simply the W3 page on lists, which includes several example lists that demonstrate the problem.
