While conducting a typographic study, I noticed that OOoHeading--the
parent of the OOoHeading 1, OOoHeading 2, ... paragraph styles--had
OOoTextBody as its parent. Was there ever a good reason for our doing so?
OOoTextBody is a serif typeface, and the OOoHeading x-type styles are
sans serif. Is OOoHeading inheriting much of anything useful for our
purposes from OOoTextBody?
While altering the OOoTextBody from its single leading to a fixed
leading set at 120% (not proportional), that would wreak havoc with its
OOoHeading child and carry it through to its children heading styles. I
do not consider that to be a good feature in case any leading changes
were ever implemented to the body text. Nor is linking the body text
style to heading styles, in general.
