--- Comment #6 from Heiko Tietze <heiko.tietze at documentfoundation.org> ---
We discussed the topic in the design meeting.

Using the combobox to create a new style from selection is a handy function if
the sidebar is closed and should remain available. It is also possible to
change the font name to something not available on the system (Helvetica,
Roboto...), which is the only way to design a document for another workstation.

The decision was to show a confirmation box "Do you want to create a new style
from the current selection? [Yes/No]", ideally with a checkbox "[ ] Don't ask
again" taking into consideration whether yes or no is pressed.

Easyhackable, but no code pointer at hand.
