Perhaps related to bug 272547? (Although that bug is not about columns, so...)

Also reproduced using Camino, so setting All/All.

Yeah, I'm guessing it's just not finding the right block frame to manage the
counts, because the primary frame for that content is not a block in this case.

Here we just need to inherit the counter style into the wrapped block.

Hmmm... Why do we actually need to inherit this?  Won't this reset the counter
for each column?

The patch in bug 3247 fixes this (by making it a tag name check in the block
code, as a temporary measure until we use the counter properties for lists), so
I suggest not bothering with this.

This is a bug. I suggest we wait till bug 3247 is fixed and mark this FIXED then
instead of WONTFIX which seems incorrect.
