RichTextBox: 'Decrement paragraph left indent' command can set left indent which makes bullets invisible in Web layout mode

'Decrement paragraph left indent' command can set negative left indent which makes bullets/numbering of a list clipped. Instead, it shouldn't be executed if the bullets/numbering would become invisible.

Workaround: Cancel the command in CommandExecuting event:

            this.radRichTextBox.CommandExecuting += (sender, e) =>
            {
                if (e.Command == this.radRichTextBox.Commands.DecrementParagraphLeftIndentCommand)
                {
                    if (this.radRichTextBox.Document.Selection.GetSelectedParagraphs().Any(p => p.IsInList && p.LeftIndent <= 24))
                    {
                        e.Cancel = true;
                    }
                }
            };

Hello,

This behavior was originally reported over 9 years ago and has not received significant demand or follow-up from the community since then. Considering this and the availability of a workaround, we are unable to prioritize it over more impactful and widely requested improvements.

If this limitation is still affecting your scenario, please share additional context or use cases. This will help us better assess the severity and reconsider prioritization in the future. Thank you!
