The problem for a user that I expect here would be:

"I created a document from a template. I had *not* touched any of the styles in
my new document; I *only* used "Text Body" in the document, so I expected my
document to only contain one "Text Body" style; yet, when I imported the styles
from that document into another one I'm working on, a lot of other styles were
also created/modified"... because the template that user was using to create
the initial document already had lots of styles modified from the application
defaults - so they were technically modified, but possibly not modified from a
user's PoV.

But I *don't* oppose the proposal. It's much better than nothing; and it's
better to start with it, and later to get some new proposal to improve (e.g.
from people having new ideas how to describe this), than to continue having
nothing.
