<pre>Let me clarify what I meant when opening the bug.
The issue is NOT that the style named “Default” looks wrong. Problems arise
from the fact that all other paragraph styles inherit from it, which leads to
surprising behaviour. For example, if I add hyphenation to the “Default”
paragraphs, I get hyphenation in headings as well. This is a gotcha
(counter-intuitive, but documented, behaviour).
If the paragraph style for new documents would have been named “Default”, which
would inherit from template called, lets call it “Baseline” and all other
documents would inherit from said “Baseline”, then I there would be no bug.
However, I do NOT think this is necessary, just don't use the “Default” style
for the new documents.
My suggestion to use “Text body” style (Reason2) was proposed only because it
is used after headings. If people like the formatting of the “Default”, make a
new style, let it inherit all the properties of the ”Default“ style, call it
something generic, like “Paragraph”, and use it for the first paragraph in new
documents.
I don't think this would break any existing documents or affect
interoperability.</pre>
