Is that Citrus UI stuff just a design study or actually implemented somehow? Because I really think this is the way LibO should look like - and work. The style replacement thing is great, and the "unsaved style" "suggests" the user that there is such a thing as styles. The problem with current programs is that even though you might style your text bold, the style chooser still sais "standard".
