Actually, we don't fully support DF. DF is not supported at all on page
sequences (i.e. DF over the page style) in Writer:

About (one of) the more general points:
I believe allowing for multiple modes of interaction of DF and named
styles - like overwrite-apply, add-apply etc. - would probably make
things more difficult to understand for most users. But we will
eventually have more flexibility than we have today, and is a bit
closer to what you can get with CSS on HTML pages.
Example 1:
Properties set to values relative to an underlying style:
https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=127702
that applies to DF just as well as to a character styles.
Today, if you have text in a style with font size 12pt, and you DF the
font size of some word to 15pt, then change the style to some heading
with 20pt - you'll keep your 15pt from the DF, even though now it's
smaller rather than larger than the paragraph baseline. But if you were
to DF your font size to be "125% of underlying", and you change the
paragraph style - you would now have 25pt.
Example 2:
Application of multiple styles simultaneously:
https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=149271
so you could possibly change just "some" of your style, not all of it,
potentially reducing destructive interaction with DF.
