--- Comment #3 from R. Bingham <rdbing...@verizon.net> ---
FYI, this attachment/comment may show multiple times. I submitted it but it is
now not showing in Bugzilla when I re-query this bug 155054. 

Thanks. I volunteer edit a wide range of documents, accumulating my own library
of OTTs AND a library of 100s of styles (for all style types shown in
Navigator) across multiple OTTs. I have become very sensitive to the clunky
parts of the LO UI regards 'enterprise' style creation and curation for
consistency across OTTs. I dream of an enterprise database of LO styles I can
manage via a spreadsheet-like presentation for consistency and parameter-value
patterns across all my OTTs. Sigh...

In the meantime I must make do with the OTT by OTT, style-by-style tabbed-pane
GUI. Navigator is my friend. Inheritance is my friend for managing commonality
of parameter value sub-sets in tree children. The attached screenshot...

well, no, Bugzilla Attachment submission not working at the moment, so
laboriously re-create in text here

... shows a small part of one of my paragraph styles trees still evolving. Note
how I use 'parent only' styles not intended for actual doc use to both encode
key parameter value choices in the style name and as a holder of those values
for the children. Note how I have had to develop a hints encoding scheme for
the style terminal name for when it appears in a tabbed-pane flat picklist. The
encoding scheme not only hints at parameter values but also leverages the
style-name string sort that usefully happens in both picklist and Navigator
presentations. Building up this sort/grouping gives each style-name item a
surrounding context as an implicit additional hint of meaning. The encoding
burden on the terminal sytle-name could be much less in the Navigator
hierarchial view since the inheritance parents are there to also carry some of
the encoding in their names as well.

I note that Navigator does not offer inheritance for Pages, Lists, and Tables
styles. Sadness, and my next UI enhancement requests.

Regards.
