I'm sure I will stick to <ul>'s for my main navigation and <ol>'s when I need something listed in order.

That's the way I look at it. Welcome to WebmasterWorld lordgore!

Would an A-Z listing qualify for the <ol> element?

I like the Step by Step Guide example too. That surely qualifies. And, to make things even more interesting, I'll use the link rel element (start, next, prev, etc.) to group those documents together and make them whole. :)

Would you show numbers in a menu for the visitor? I really like to have "order" with everything I do. It is so much easier to direct someone to #3 on the list, isn't it?

Now, if you show the numbers, do you fiddle with the CSS to get the padding and everything just right or do you not display the numbers and make them part of the anchor text?

What happens if the numbered list needs to be ascending?

By the way, I have read and assimilated "all" of the documents that reside here...

Introduction to Techniques for WCAG 2.0 - Table of Contents
[w3.org...]

I "promise" if you read at least the section on General Techniques, you will be far more educated on the requirements for on page SEO than most. If you read all linked resources within the documents, you will be in a class above many. You'll have a "complete" understanding of what is required in all instances you may be challenged with. Heck, the WCAG even give you working code examples that validate.

Congratulations to the WCAG for a document that is leaps and bounds beyond anything I've read from anyone in regards to on page SEO. Ya, they let the cat out of the bag as they say. No, they never mention the term SEO in their documentation. Not that I could find anyway. But, they do reference UA just about everywhere. ;)
