I don't think the note addresses the same topic. There, the proposer would like
to specify a named character style in paragraph style. I think it is already
implemented, but the other way round. The character properties in the paragraph
style are names "Default Style" among the character styles.

Reusing character properties in other paragraph styles is achieved with
inheritance (parent style hierarchy).

The only case where the proposal would bring a bonus is when you have a complex
style hierarchy which cannot be represented as a tree (multiple inheritance),
but I didn't ponder seriously on it to see if it makes sense in document style
organisation. I could not build at once of a practical use case. Perhaps copy
the character properties from two levels up, but this likely betrays a badly
designed hierarchy.
