I beg to discuss these ideas on a broader audience, because I deal with end users, 99% dumb users, 1% less dumb, and for 99% there is no chance to understand what a style is, and LO is @#$#@$% them off because it tries to do better, clever and smarter than they able to cope. What they get with MSWord is a paper-saving 1920's Remington typewriter, with an imbecile formatting job, and an acceptable printed output at the end. That is what counts for these 99%. Direct formatting is what these 99% want and if they don't get it, they don't know what to do with LO. We are asking too much from them. So, IMHO, the UI should have a switch for 2 kind of users: One for the 99% with the most infantile interface for direct formatting, and the second for the 1% with a full throtle document processor.
