No! The AutoCorrect options dialog is simple as can be. The entry "Automatic
*bold*, /italic/, -strikeout- and _underline_" labeling is a simple
translation. And GUI makes behavior to apply while [M] -- modify, or [T] --
typing is obvious. Moving the control elsewhere, or into Expert Configuration
would make less sense than adjusting the default state(s) to disabled.

And though I beleive we would benefit from more ambitious refactoring to
provide granularity and user selection of using Character STYLE or DIRECT
FORMATTING (as currently applied). Absent that effort, the existing control is
suitable to task.

Again IMHO => WF
