Hello,

adding a new list item via M-RET (org-insert-heading) may change
text in a previous list item, if this ends in a number on a single
line followed by a dot:
-------------------------------
- Several astonishing things happened in
2007.
- And then there was another item.
- X
-------------------------------
Note that " 2007." has changed to " 1." in line 2.
Yes, and unfortunately, I don't see any solution here. It isn't really
a bug: a line starting with white space, followed by a number sticked
to a dot is exactly the definition, regexp wise, of a list item (as
explained in `org-plain-list-ordered-item-terminator' doc-string).
That's why removing the dot solves the problem.
There are two workarounds I can think of, at the moment:
1. Use (setq org-plain-list-ordered-item-terminator ?)). But that will
affect every ordered list.
2. Insert some invisible char (non-breaking space " ") in front of the
item, or just after the dot. But this requires manual changes every
time the problem arises.
As a side-note, this problem isn't specific to recent versions of Org.
For example, in 6.33, use M-RET at X in the following example:
-------------------------------
- Several astonishing things happened in
2007. And then there was another item.X
-------------------------------
