Hello,

I'm new in the list. Just signed to see how it's going KOffice development.

I agree with this, and have additional comment. When I get such
terribly structured document and try to assign styles for instance in
OOO it's hard to do that. It's difficult to see which character
properties comes from style and which are manually overrided.

So maybe it will be useful to do that user could see which  characters
properties are manually owerided. Mark them with some mark. Of course
all thees marks should be possible turn off together with formating
marks.

Sorry for interruption,

Good luck.
