Why not open a bug/feature request to add support for doing this via styles?
Since you've already worked out the hard part, upload your default template complete with these predefined Styles to give the devs a starting point?

I have never been satisfied with OO and LibO's treatment of outline numbering. I like to control all formatting with Styles, but when it comes to outline numbering, I can't do that. For outline numbered paragraphs, even paragraph indents and margins are controlled by Tools/Outline Numbering rather than the styles. What I have done is create a bunch of paragraph styles called "Outline-1," "Outline-2," "Outline-3," etc. In terms of Style-controlled formatting, each of these styles is identical -- single spaced with 12 point vertical space before each paragraph. Then, in the Tools/Outline Numbering dialog, I associate each outline style with a different outline level. Then within each particular level, I set the formatting parameters I want with proper numbering and paragraph indenting. It is all very backwards as I end up formatting paragraphs, not by the formatting styles, but by the outline numbering feature. I spent many, many hours trying to get it figured out, but once I got it done, it works great. I saved all my styles and outline numbering parameters into my default template so that I never have to try to figure it out again.
