The specific need is being able to define styles progressively as one moves down the hierarchy. With my example above: I want to be able to increase or decrease the spacing after all Heading N lines, with each of them increasing by the same factor.

I am actually betting that this is not complex as an ODF feature. But - I realize this could potentially be quite complex in terms of the UI. There are different avenues for dealing with the expression of such complexity, which merit discussion IMO; at worst, there could be an ability for advanced users to edit a textual or semi-textual representation of the everything the style changes relative to its parent (similar to what we currently have in read-only form in the organizer), and in this representation, the relative-ease of the ODF level could be more readily expressed. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
