I've now tested the branch a bit. No crashes anymore, but I noticed two things:

1) Try this in the Style Manager:

    1) Click "New" in the "Paragraph" tab.
       (A new paragraph style called "New Style" is created)
    2) Click "New" in the "Character" tab.
       (A new character style called "New Style" is created)
    3) Click the "Paragraph" tab.
    4) A dialog pops up saying the name "New Style" is already used.
    5) Click OK to confirm the dialog.
    6) You're brought to the "Paragraph" tab.
    7) The dialog pops up again.
    8) ---> Loop

2) When adding a new style in the Style Manager, it shows up correctly in the styles combo under "Text editing". But after changing a style and hitting "Apply" in the Style Manager, the look is not updated in the combo. This may not be related to your changes.

Review request for Calligra and Pierre Stirnweiss.

Description

This patch tries to fix the problems/crashes which happen in the style manager. 

To get the simple crash open the default document and click on the edit button of the None (character style)

The patch uses a different model for the style manager and temporary styles that get modified to only apply the changes once the user applies them.
The model changes the internal pointer to the temporary files once they are selected and when applied resets to the original ones.
However the styles preview in the styles manager list is updated immediately.
The patch simplifies the handling quite a bit.

I did not know that Pierre was also working on that so I publish it now so we have something we can discuss.

If you like this I would like to backport it to 2.6 as it fixes quite some grave bugs compared to what we have now.

Testing

Tested modification without saving.
