Screen capture

Selecting "Edit Style" from the paragraph style drop-down list on the formatting toolbar opens the paragraph dialog, but does not close the drop-down list.

This makes it possible to repeatedly open more paragraph style dialogs and intentionally, or otherwise, apply any available style to the focused paragraph.

The attached screen capture illustrates the issue.

I have not had the opportunity to test on Linux yet.

I am not sure if this is a regression, or an undocumented 5.2 feature. I see it as a regression, but if a new 5.2 feature it is "interesting", but pretty useless and confusing.
