Description: Each window in LibreOffice have a name. For example, if you click "Insert" and then "Image" in the menu bar, you will see "Insert Image" window. It makes it easy to write documentation and give instructions to users. For some reason, style windows have dynamic names. This complicates the writing of documentation. And the documentation itself, when it comes to referring to such a window, becomes awkward. To open a window which I'm talking about, select some style, open its context menu, and select Modify. For Text Body paragraph style, the window title will be "Paragraph Style: Text Body". For Footnote Anchor character style, it will be "Character Style: Footnote Anchor". Isn't better to give this window a static name? Something like "Style settings".

-1 The Style dialog takes its name from the object type that is being modified. That is not decorative, that is functional as users need to know exactly the Style they are changing--as applicable to the object they have selected. Issues of documentation are secondary as the dialog is self documenting. IMHO invalid and => WF
