There is no such thing as non-hierarchical styles, or rather if you neglect the
hierarchy and put every style on the top level it has a consequence. The
typical hierarchy is Default > Text Body | Quotation, and changing the font,
for example, from Serif to Sans on Default affects all (unchanged) styles
below.

The proposed generic style management dialog might sound as a solution but
violates the KISS principle and contradicts the actual power of style
hierarchy.

Plus, you shouldn't have to modify styles a lot. Even with a couple of
modifications it's something that could be done once and saved as template.

I'm against adding a new dialog.
