I have been helping users at my prior job; and I always saw the confusion about
why they need to define page styles when they want to set a page number. I also
see the constant questions on Ask site, where people are confused why, when
they apply a page style, it only applies to some small section of the document.
This is a very real usability issue, which actually shows a bad design (what is
the rationale behind linking together the unrelated concepts of assigning page
styles and assigning page numbers to a paragraph?).

> Are you going to implement it?

Well - quite possibly (if the recommended approach would not be over my head
:-)). I am the one who asked for that in the first place :-)
