The **wonderful**, nor broken,

It is really painful that this functionality is gone.
I hate to react in a "me too" form, but yes, not having this extension
working would be a show stopper for me. So
https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/attachment.cgi?id=103039 solves
it.... For now.
This extension has to do something with both intuitive work flow and
efficient work flow: You start writing in an empty document while using
styles consequently. As your document gets bigger and more mature you
want to assign an existing and proven template that fits fine.
I am a little surprised that this is not standard functionality in
LibreOffice (why?) and I am even more surprised that so little people
complain about the missing functionality in an environment where it is
to be expected that people rely more on styles than direct formatting.
Having said this, I am very grateful to be able to use "Template
Changer" by André Schnabel (cc). I wonder what long term plans there are
concerning
https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/attachment.cgi?id=103039&action=edit
and the working link (to this more than highly appreciated extension).
B.t.w., the grass on the other side of the border is not greener per
definition:
