(In reply to Telesto from comment #15)

Almost totally off-topic. (And puzzled why Style Inspector was mentioned in
that context.) We don't talk about battles and competition. We are talking
about a specific feature, that MS Word *lacks*, and which is one of the best
features Writer *has*. So no amount of "this is lost battle" reasoning is
useful here.

"Mimicking" is when we create *shortcuts* for people with specific
expectations, like "insert page break". This allows users who are newbies to
start using functionality in a similar "intuitive" way. But that doesn't mean
that internals change to match. It is only a convenience means.

But then it is expected that user of LibreOffice starts learning *it*, with its
specifics. Well, instead many insist that LibreOffice is "cheap/free" MSO, and
must not differ in every aspect (like comment 15). Which is *wrong*, and LO is
*not* trying to be that, not aiming to be that.

And then - again - go endless walls of philosophical text, instead of focusing
on the issue here. So the issue - again - becomes useless.

I tried to make it focused in comment 12. You may try to enhance your own
issue, or you are free to make it even worse by adding what no one will ever
read in full. Your choice (as always).
