Public bug reported:

New wishlist item: Custom Slide headers with 
bold/italic/underline/left/right/center options
Severity: Moderate

Explanation:
It's like the Footer section, but goes at the top and the text can be formatted 
more than Footer text can

Rationale:
As a fairly liturgical church, we use a lot of custom slides, and PowerPoint is 
far too cumbersome & sluggish for our needs.  We're just displaying formatted 
text.  Most of our custom slides have titles that need to be displayed, and the 
slides are different every week.  (I tried keeping a library of them, but it 
turns out they're always different and don't repeat.)
The current approach is to manually enter & format the title on the first line 
of *every* slide, with manually placed Slide Splits.  This involves a lot of 
trial-and-error, save/preview/edit/save, etc.  It's rather tedious, and it 
would be wonderful to just define a title/header, and dump all the plain text 
in the body section with Optional Splits inserted at paragraph breaks.
