Why would they be disabled? The UNO command uno:ResetAttributes remains active
at all times. It is not implemented to be a selection driven activation, but
shifts focus of its action to object that is selected.

Meaning that when cursor is present in the document canvas with no selection
made--the cleared attribute would apply to the character the text cursor is
sitting on, or the word containing it, or to the paragraph depending on the
class of attribute being cleared.

And of course the UNO ResetAttributes used for the "Clear Direct formatting"
entry in the context menu was removed at 5.2 (see bug 86606 and bug 81132 for
ongoing work to reduce context menu emphasis on Direct Formatting).
