My understanding is
a) that its intentional, see
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/ooo-build/2010-February/000540.html
and the commit
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/commit/?id=6e690e0909459d46c53d17e7939891abea11e566
b) that "paragraph styles" are not cleared, i.e. the text should remain
using the original paragraph and character styles, but any additional
properties applied on top of that is reset to the underlying paragraph
and character styles properties.
