The spec says that for a reversed counter:

> Instantiates a reversed counter of the given <counter-name> with a starting value of the given <integer>, or no starting value if not given.

But when I test this, I find that for both `list-item` and an author created counter the default starting value is the number of elements in the current nesting level - ie. making it easy to count backwards from the number of elements to one. Is that correct?

I ask because I thought my first test showed `list-item` working this way but not author created. New test seems to show both do.
