Well, right now this is not possible: when you open the first dialogue everything else in the UI gets immediately locked so you need to edit one style at a time. So the question is: do we want that when the "accept but not close" button/behaviour is used the dialogue become temporary modal? IMHO, this would not be a good idea because to have a dialogue that behave as modal or not modal depending on what you previously did will cause confusion, "accidents" and headaches. I think that we must keep the fact that when you select an object and a property you cannot select another object without closing the property, specially when talking about styles. On direct formatting for graphical objects could make sense to have a non modal dialogue, though.
