OK i get what you are talking about.

Well if users have lots of styles in their document, i would expect them to use
the styles and formatting sidebar, just like they would use the styles pane in
MS Word[1].

Something like this could be implemented for the notebookbar, though i doubt it
would be implemented any time soon, but wouldnt be doable for the toolbar
unless it was implemented differently.

@Maxim: So i'm thinking that we could create a group button similar to Outline
(.uno:SetOutline) that when opened shows square cropped renderings of the same
list found in .uno:StyleApply in a 4x3 grid with a vertical scrollbar (would
assume this would need to be a glade widget/control in order for it also to be
available in the notebookbar), followed by a 'more style' entry at the bottom
that opens up the styles sidebar. Thoughts?
