Note that normally you should NEVER apply font effects directly.
Always use the appropriate character style instead:

For a menu path use OOoMenuPath (e.g. File > Save As)

We do not have a character style for underlined text. Personally I am

I almost never use underlining due to its interference with character
descenders...
I agree, so let's NOT add a style for underlining... until and unless
someone comes up with a compelling need for it.
As to the various flavors of "emphasis": Perhaps we should adopt the
same or similar terms for them that Word 2007 does, so that their usage
would be more "catholic" (lowercase usage).
I don't see why we should modify names in our templates (which are for
our own internal use) to be consistent with MSWord (2007 or any other
version). If someone (yourself, for example) wishes to adapt our
template for more general use, they can easily change the style names to
suit their own preferences or needs.
