Great, thanks a lot! Closing this as NOTOURBUG here then.

FYI: When I implemented this for NVDA and thought about making use of text
attributes instead of toggle button state etc., I ran into the problem that
there isn't necessarily any actual text whose text attributes could be used/.
Quoting from my commit message in
https://github.com/nvaccess/nvda/commit/46a343685247ed7d1adfb737716590ec4be456a0
:

"Note: An alternative approach querying the text attributes
from the IAccessibleText interface instead of the button
state would run into the problem that it works reliably when
text is selected, but has no clear way to figure out whether
or not bold is enabled or not when there's no selection.
(The text attributes need to be queried for a given index, but
when the text cursor is e.g. in front of the first character of
non-bold text, Ctrl+B would enable bold for newly typed text, but
querying the text attributes at index 0 of the existing text
would still not report bold, resulting in issues like
as observed and described in issue #16412 for MS Word.)"
