Just for the fun of it - can't be done with sed alone; but, with list as defined above, 8,10,16,17,22 in a file called POS, and a recent bash, try

Code:
echo $list | sed 's/[0-9]\+/0/g' | sed -f<(echo $list | cut -d" " -f$(< POS) | tr ' ' '\n' | paste - <(tr ',' '\n' < POS) | tac | sed 's/^/s\/0\//; s/\t/\//')
0 0 0 0 0 0 0 18 0 20 0 0 0 0 0 26 6 0 0 0 0 5 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0

HISTORY

       The GNU shtool subst command was originally written by Ralf S.  Engelschall <rse@engelschall.com> in 2001 for GNU shtool.  It was prompted
       by the need to have a uniform and convenient patching frontend to sed(1) operations in the OpenPKG package specifications.

SEE ALSO

       shtool(1), sed(1).
