<span class="quote">> It would be great if the 'Automatic' entry could be set as default...</span >
Sounds like hidden magic. Automatic has the same entries as Text Styles,
listing headings down to nine levels (such a deep structure in documents is a
torture for readers). Two entries, at least, are about letters and may not be
relevant in 80% of the use cases.
I think the better approach is to organize styles in a tree like
+ Custom
+ Headings
+ Text
- Document
Header
Footer
Endnote
...
+ Captions
+ Lists
+ Tables
+ Emphasize
similar to what we have with Hierarchical but sorted for improved overview.
Alternative to a tree it's possible to sort with an accordion. I would add a
checkbox "[ ] Applied styles only" (my personal first choice in this dropdown),
and perhaps another "[x] Simple" that hides the less often used styles (e.g.
Header left/right, Illustration index header...).</pre>
