--- Comment #11 from Octavio Alvarez <octallo at alvarezp.org> ---
Quick opinion: I would just like to ask to be careful not to break existing
workflows. I agree that "automatic" is the best place to implement an
improvement.

I also have some suggestions:

- Rename "automatic" to "beginner", or even add a "beginner", making it the
default view without removing "automatic" to prevent existing workflow
breakage. I use hierarchical anyway; automatic is too unpredictable.

- No need to have 10 heading levels in automatic view. Reduce it to 3 and
dynamically show more. Because of the comment above, showing only Heading 1 by
default leads to a "no, that's too big / too small / too whatever" reaction and
users not using it. Beginners don't easily grasp at first that style
definitions can be changed.

Just as a reply to Tin:

> List and Numbering styles should appear only when there are lists in the document.

I use these to apply bullets and numbering without clicking the toolbar button
first.
