I have a rather long document listing a number of items, which I need to be numbered continuously throughout the entire document. The following approach appears to work well, except that the numbering restarts at the beginning of every chapter. Is there a way that can be avoided?

\startitemize[n]
  \item bar
  \item faz
\stopitemize[n]

\startitemize[n, continue]

  \item foo

  \item bla

\stopitemize[n]

Thank you,

Malte.
