--- Comment #20 from V Stuart Foote <vstuart.foote at utsa.edu> ---
We could spin this a number of ways. But functionally the built-in styles are
immutable and will always be available--even if unused in a document. IIUC our
ODF export filters simply do not include built-in style that is not called in
the document--while the export filters do include any defined custom styles
(used or not). Users need additional tools.

An "Unused Styles" content panel showing _all_ defined styles as a counterpoint
to the "Applied Styles" content panel listing, and distinct from "Custom
Styles" listing of available template or user defined styles is needed. Main
purpose would be to simplify clean-up an ODF compliant document when using
template source or if using copied/edited documents.

Believe when working with template source documents--having this feature
encourages/supports more efficient use of styles. Allowing the user to clean up
prior to publishing.

To implement expect we should organize the content panel to list any "Custom
styles" first, and then "Built-in" below, but also provide a GUI option to
toggle display of the built-in so as to reduce any perceived clutter. With
built-in toggled off--user would be able to select and delete any excess.

Again no issue of deleting the built-ins that can't happen--so this is
ultimately just about handling the "customs".
