I am trying it on my netbook, with the resolution of 1024*576 -- not the
worst of resolutions, but certainly could be better. We've been using the
combination for quite some time and I haven't heard major complaints. I'd
like to stick with it.

* Text body should be 12pt for better legibility.
* Headings should be better differentiated. The size differences are
obvious when compared near each other, but are easily lost in large bodies
of text. I'd be happier if bold, italic, and color were used for
differentiation.
* As per http://practicaltypography.com/summary-of-key-rules.html, I'd say
underlining should not be used in headings.

Please update this in your proposal. :)

Sounds good.

What I meant was that substyles used percentage values of the parent style,
which was still in points.
In general, we should stick to points, at least with Writer, as it's
tailored toward print.

OK, I guess that sounds good.
