This is a good idea, and can be implemented easily (at least drawing the
lines). I've attached a patch that does it (only as a reference!
[The patch is against CVS, and will not works with 1.1.4]).
Another idea is to keep the layout combox list unchanged,
but put to its right a choice button that enable you to choose the depth.
A short graphical illustration:
+-------------+ +--------------+
| Enumerate | | In proof (1) |
+-------------+ +--------------+
Clicking on the right button gives:
+-------------+ +------------------------+
| Enumerate | | Depth 0 |
+-------------+ | |
| In proof (1) |
| |
| In enumerate in .. (2) |
| |
| In enumerate in .. (3) |
+------------------------+
