First, I think extending this from Persian to English already shows the biggest flaw of this approach: Do you want to extend in in this way for all languages supported by LibO? I would consider such extension to additional languages a localization task, a task that typically only consists of translating string resources.
String resources wouldn't be sufficient as different locales have different rules for how to form a number string, especially when it comes to ordinals. However, this looks more like spell-out than level numbering and as such misses the point of the numbering provider. If we wanted to implement spell-out I'd rather go for ICU's methods than implementing yet another home-grown solution. Eike -- PGP/OpenPGP/GnuPG encrypted mail preferred in all private communication.
