I would like propose the possibility to use external style sheets for Writer 
documents (much like the use of external style sheets for web sites).

Now, one chooses a template when creating documents, and changes made to 
formatting styles inside the document are local.

By keeping the style sheet external to the writer document, it will be much 
more easier to maintain a number of documents (and a master document) using 
the same formatting.

F.i., if one is to write a book, it is very likely that each and every chapter 
is written in a seperate Write document and the book is combined in a master 
document.

A template will be created which will contain the base formatting styles used 
for each chapter and used for the master document.
If, however, a new style needs te be added, or an existing style needs to be 
changed (which will happen for sure), all other chapters and the master 
document must reload the styles (if one is to maintain the same look and feel 
for all chapters during the writing process - f.i. changing the page header 
and footer height to present an example).

I propose the use of an external style sheet, where the changes of one style 
in one document is automatically carried over into any other document using 
the same external style sheet.
