List Styles & Style Sets

Does anyone know if it is possible to include a list style within a style set?  I know to add the styles I want to include in a style set into the style gallery, then save the style set under the design tab.  However, even though the styles in my style set are linked to list styles for the numbering, those list styles do not get transferred to a document I add the style set to.  I really need the list styles to also transfer to the document I'm adding the style set to.  Of course, list styles do not show up in the styles pane or the style gallery (or at least I cannot determine how to get them to).  Thoughts?

    Thanks.  I can import list styles using the Organizer; and I have written macros that import sets of styles (along with list styles) into whatever document I'm editing (and those work perfectly).  When deploying this kind of thing for clients, it would just be a lot easier if I could give them style sets to import; but I need those list styles to be included.  I've frankly never understood why list styles cannot be made to show up in the styles pane or the style gallery.  Frustrating...
