I am not a translator, but as I understand it, Olivier proposed this 5th. character style mainly for the benefit of translators, see: https://www.mail-archive.com/documentation@global.libreoffice.org/msg16009.html
While I have many other reservations about the guide documentation template, I don't believe it will involve much additional effort. Looking back through some recently published guides there appears to be a mixed approach to the character style used for naming UI objects (widgets), where some have the emphasis style and others have the default style.
