Correct.

They would be the same. Just that a page style applied via the context menu of
a Sheet's "Tab"--would apply against just that sheet.  While a page style
applied via the Status Bar (bug 87750) would apply to all selected active
Sheets.

Also that for both, the action should be applying the page style to the sheet.
And *not* simply opening the "Page Style..." dialog which is a style editor
with no means to select/apply a different page style--likely custom by template
or previously created in current spreadsheet. 

That is the way the Status bar selector functions for Writer pages (though as
you note the page styles for Writer affect ODF text documents differently than
page styles for Calc ODF spreadsheets).

Just want to be clear that what is needed for both the Sheet tab (bug 160920)
and the Status bar <r-mouse> context menu action (bug 87750) is the style
selector and not the style editor for the sheet.
