And therein lies the problem. While fun, it would not encourage disciplined use
of styles. 

Creating or modifying a style from the <F11> "Stylist" and then applying it--to
prior selection, or with paint mode--is a controlled action. The "style" is
assigned a reasonable identity, and appears in the style selector--named and
available for reuse.

Generating and applying multiple "styles" on the fly from toolbar would quickly
generate unmanageable ODF documents that would have stability issues on
reopening. Using styles as haphazardly as direct formatting would be a
backwards step.

The existing UI--providing the <F11> "Stylist" as a deck on the Sidebar, the
new but restrained scope "Formatting (Styles)" toolbar, and the Format -> Clone
Formatting button widget to apply style of a selection--is suitable to task.
