Thought about things like paragraph text , nearest (sub)section-name
befor label etc. ...
btw. I must admit I do not use latex as printout generator but
Framemaker, thus I do not think primarily about "how can
it be done in (la)tex" ;)

yes - in that way; however the variable must not be replaced
by text during the input; thus, if we decide to change its value,
all occurrences change their output.

Sorry for not making things clear - I referred to character styles ...
the (currently) only way to access those, are the three buttons
emph, caps & user-style in the toolbar; a selector like for parastyles
would be nice, but the possibility to add some buttons would even
be nicer ;)
