In fact, WP also has STYLES. It's not about the same thing.
While we're at it: The other thing WP can do (Ctrl-W) is insert all
sorts of characters that are not on
the keyboard, and many are not attainable by the Compose key either. I
think there are 10 screens
worth of characters and symbols, each one having some 40 or so
available. At some point, MS Word
actually copied this verbatim, Ctrl-W and all, but then they took it
out--maybe the WP people sued them.
That must have been about 1990. So I don't know if OO can put that
feature in, or if WP would sue them.
But it sure is handy sometimes.
If you OO devs are reading this, please consider adding both Reveal
Codes and Ctrl-W.
