So, Writer _is_ designed for users who "don't want to learn about the
functionality"?

I've said it once and I'll say it again: Having to consult the documentation is
a UI failure. There are extreme cases where that is not true (e.g.: regular
expression syntax for searching) - sort order specific is not one of those
extreme cases.

Eve likely does _not_ know what it is, and even the second, third or N'th time
she visits this dialog, she does not know what it is, because the terms here
are vague and will easily confuse. More so than writing mode and direction in a
Page Style dialog. 

Granted, this dialog is not as important; but that only means the
implementation priority of such a preview could be lower, not that it isn't
useful and merited.
