Feature requests so often mentioned have never been, imho, a right solution!

... unless "time" has no importance for you and unless you can wait ... years (or even indefinitely)!

Just For Comment:

Using an ID existing version, could it be done … without pain?

Sure!

Just 1 click!

If, later, you add a new para in your list, you can keep cool: just run the script again!

Note the main "auto-numbering" is still here! but just "mise en sommeil" like "la Belle au Bois-dormant"! [x2 in french]

Thank you for the answer. I think this is the best solution so far. Where can I get the script? 🙂

FrameMaker—Adobe's other page layout program—allows you to place auto-numbers either before or after the text. InDesign does not have the ability to move the auto-numbers after the text. You can put in a feature request, here: https://indesign.uservoice.com/.
