I'm sorry but i don't understand your suggestion - could you please give me
an example? (or change my example template)

I hope this example helps:

  <block xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format" font-size="20pt">
    <block>Mimic a list using side floats</block>
    <block intrusion-displace="block">
      <float float="start"><block>1.1.1&#xa0;</block></float>
      Here is a long body with a short label to the start
      side of the page with some wrapping going
      on to show the effect on the label.
    </block>
    <block intrusion-displace="block">
      <float float="start"><block>1.1.1.1.1.1&#xa0;</block></float>
      Here is a long body with a longer label to the start
      side of the page with some wrapping
      going on to show the effect on the label.
    </block>
  </block>
