Hi Mirek,

Keep in mind that I
encourage use of hard formatting for things like bold/italicize.

OMG ! /o\

If someone from the dev team promotes such an odd behaviour, I guess
that trainers have a looooong way to go in order to make users adopt
styles <sigh>

I really can't understand why LibO (and any Libresoftware office suite)
don't emphasize on what actually make the difference with the other
office suite(s) : a consistent set of styles (well, quite enough even
though this may be enhanced).

As an exercise, just do the following:
1. Open Writer
2. Insert the dummy Autotext (TEX in FR)
3. Set a few words or single chars as bold

Now to the question: how can you set the bolded items above to italics
quickly and efficiently?
Now imagine this single paragraph text is a whole 50 pages report.

-> Direct formatting is evil. Styles are a blessing. And no other tool
comes to par with LibreOffice for that matter. Let's claim it!
