Actually, if I want to insert a page with a different page style, I must open
paragraph attributes of the first paragraph of the page to tell it to change
page style. If I only assign directly a new page style, it changes page styles
of all the page of my document, until it reaches a paragraph that tells it to
change page style. This is confusing for most users, since they don't know that
page breaks are related to paragraph attributes.

What I suggest is to enable by default page style change when you insert a page
break. For example, if my current page style is 'Standard' and that I insert a
page break, that page break tells the document to change page style to
'Standard' again. Then, when the user will change the style of the page, it will
not influence the style of the preceding page. I think this is what most users
expect.

To repeat in a more schematized way:

1- Create a new document
2- Insert a page break (CTRL+ENTER)
3- On page 2, change page style to 'Index'

What I get:

* Both page are now in 'Index' style

What I expected:

* To only get page 2 in 'Index' style, while page 1 retains 'Standard' style.

Solution:

* To automatically tell page break to change page style by default.
