Editor cannot change nested lists types correctly

If a user creates an unordered list and then decides to switch to an ordered list, they can do it simply by clicking on the "Insert Ordered List" button and vice versa.

However, if the list another list nested within it, the action either does not work or exhibits weird behavior. Please have a look at the attached example project containing the editor and a sample nested list string.

1. Placing your cursor within the outer ordered list highlights the "Insert Ordered List" button. Clicking on the "Insert Unordered List" button will either fail, create a weird intermediate level only for the item currently containing the cursor, or only change the item currently under the cursor.

2. Attempting to highlight the entire list will also highlight both the Insert List buttons. Clicking on Insert Ordered List will flatten the whole thing into paragraphs. Clicking on Insert Unordered List will mess up the list.

I expect the editor should more or less work similarly to the form in which I'm typing this message.

Hi all,

We have reviewed the case with the latest version, and the product works as expected. Closing the issue. If you still encounter the problem, please provide updated details so we can re-investigate.
