--- Comment #13 from Jamie Dimmel <jedimmel at gmail.com> ---
I'm sorry, but I fail to see how renaming this function solves either of the
two original problems, which were: 1) wanting to return all styles back to
their original settings on opening/creating the document; and 2) believing that
the LibreOffice provided templates (Default & Modern) contained ALL the styles
defined by the program. In fact, this just confuses the issue more, as you can
load styles from a document, not just a template.

Perhaps the situation would be to 1) add a note or popup when someone chooses
to overwrite styles that only the styles in the template will be overwritten
and that the template might not contain all defined styles; or 2) add all
styles to the LibreOffice provided templates; or 3) provide an option that on
choosing to overwrite styles the program default styles are loaded first, then
overwritten by the template styles.

Any of the above three would have prevented me from filing this bug, but
renaming the function would not have, so I really don't think it resolves the
underlying issue.
