Hi :)
Is it possible to completely disable all the styles in a master
document so that the ones from the sub-document do remain untouched?

I would think that would take away the benefit of a master document. By
having the style controlled by one master document, you get consistent
formatting throughout. If that could be disabled, you could have
different chapters with different formatting all because one or two
chapter files had their styles set up differently.
I like the control provided by the master document. It frees me up to
not think so much about formatting in my sub-documents knowing that the
master will fix it all.
For example, I can create subdocuments using a Consolas font, an
excellent typeface for onscreen editing. Then, I set the master document
with Linux Libertine G, a great font for publishing, but not so great
for onscreen editing. When I go to compile and print, voila, my master
document is perfectly formatted, changing Consolas to Libertine *and*
fixing any minor style deviations I may have inadvertently created.
