Probably I just jumped to a quick conclusion based on a naive understanding of the description. I thought that `results' are `output' as `orgmode lists'. Our mails have crossed. I have tried answering in the last of my previous mails most of the questions that you have raised. Ignore me if I don't make any sense :-). To reiterate: 1. Alphabetical lists has already surfaced and a patch is in progress. 2. ascii backend is the dumbest one that doesn't offer any custom style associations like HTML or OpenOffice. I find the ASCII backend the most useful of all the backends. 3. The easy menu map is one Orgmode already uses to capture 'polymorphic' behaviour as in C-c C-e binding and may be this could be used for choosing styles (from the user side). 4. The new feature could be used for 'ingestion' of custom-styles. So a power-user has better control.
