Your pointy-haired boss wants a list 5 levels deep where the second paragraph of item 2.4.1 needs to be at the third level of indentation, but the second paragraph of 3.1.6 needs to be indented only twice because it belongs to the 3.1 item?

FWIW Emacs solves this with text properties. You can attach a property list to any arbitrary character.

For better or worse, org mode has no such equivalent.
