--- Comment #24 from Regina Henschel <rb.henschel at t-online.de> ---
Putting such information into the comment margin will conflict with ordinary
comments. This area is too small anyway. I see also problems with adding
rectangles to the page margins. You would need to touch a lot of code, to
distinct them from other graphic content. So I do not like that idea at all.

But I support Andreas' idea of a separate inspector window similar to those
known from DOM inspectors. It has the advantage, that it needs no code
integration, but can be provided purely as extension. Such window would allow a
more detailed view on the inheritance of properties. For example, a portion of
text can have a direct format "yellow", a character style with "italic", which
is derived from a character style with language set to "German", and uses the
font height of the paragraph style, which inherits the font itself from the
default style. And such window can be freely positioned and sized.
