--- Comment #3 from RGB <[email protected]> ---
The paragraph styles available for cross-references & TOC are the ones set on
one of two places: 

1) under Tools → Heading numbering → Numbering tab
2) in the paragraph style definition under *Outline level* in the *Outline &
List* tab

The style names have no real meaning, they are only there for convenience. If
you edit Heading (or any other style) to give it an outline level different
from "none" (or if you change the default styles selected on *Heading
numbering*), it will appear in the list of styles that can be referenced. 

The system is easy to use, but difficult to discover. The problem is, perhaps,
not about the use of a particular style for a particular task, but about naming
and documentation of the whole system. 

The *Heading <N>* styles (with N from 1 to 10), used by default to set the
document structure, all depend on *Heading* (without number) for their
definitions. You have therefore a hierarchy of styles that goes from *Default
Paragraph Style*, to *Heading*, to *Heading <N>*. For example, you can define
the language for the document by modifying *Default Paragraph Style*, define
the font used by all the headings by modifying *Heading*, and define the text
size of each heading level by changing the percentage on the corresponding
*Heading N* style.

In a nutshell: I'm completely against of making *Heading* available by default
for cross-references, but strongly in favor of making the whole system more
clear for new users... even if I have no idea how to achieve that.
