Hmmm... time to go out on a tangent here: I think it would be extremely cool 
if Koffice could be made to remember preferences. For example, if the users 
always starts a bulleted list with 3 dashes and then makes it use a certain 
style of bullets, it could be done automatically. If after a while they start 
to cancel this all the time (it should be undoable with the undo button, just 
as if the user had done it - I just thought of that but it would be a major 
advance, because auto-formatting is too hard to undo in Word), then Koffice 
would learn that and stop trying it. The idea is that instead of forcing the 
users to go through the options to configure it, it could learn what they do 
and don't do, and enforce their style.
