I've noticed a couple of glitches.

First, you are using

  (> 28 (length struct))

to know when to replace letters by numbers. But (length struct)
doesn't always match list length, so it will lead to errors when
outdenting items.

For example, try outdenting, with its subtree, the item marked with
"<<<" in the list below:

  a) etsiun
  b) etsiun
  c) etsiun
  d) etisun
  e) etsiun
  f) etsiun
  g) etsiun
  h) etsiun
  i) etisun
  j) etsiun
  k) etsiun
  l) etsiun
  m) etsiun
  n) etsiun
     a) Outdent me and my children ! <<<
        a) tersiu
        b) etsiru
        c) estiur
        d) etsnriu
        e) etsiun
        f) etiune
        g) etuirsnet
     b) etsiun
  o) etsiun
  p) etsiun
  q) etsiun
  r) etsiun
  s) etsiun

All the lists will be numbered although they could keep alphabetical
bullets.

Another (lesser) problem is coming from the regexp chosen for bullets,
that is "[0-9A-Za-z]+". I would suggest something alike
"\\(\\(?:[0-9]\\)+\\|[A-Za-z]\\)". At the moment, you can set counter
to address@hidden and break you list when applying it.
