The problem seems that on the way to OASIS, the code is in the middle. That is 
unfortunately what might happen during a developement.

If the patch compiles, you can post it. (Try to test it on KPresenter first 
but if it not working it is not a problem either.)

I would suppose that the problem is that at load of classical KWord file, the 
(OASIS) display name of the style is not correctly set.

(David's last change on the style manager seems to add support for OASIS
