Description andyp 2006-05-26 10:19:33 UTC 
* New text document
* Show the style window (F11)
* Show the numbering page
* Choose "All" from the display dropdown at the bottom of the window
* Right-click, and choose "New"
* Enter "Outline" as the name

A message "This name is already in use" is shown.

Why can't I see it then?  I've got a box showing me all the styles - so where is
"Outline".  Either it exists or it doesn't, if it exists - show it in the box.

I'm guessing it is a reserved name (probably for MS Office documents); doesn't
matter.  Show it anyway.  It's incredibly confusing to be told that something
exists and at the same time be shown that it doesn't

It looks that the style name "Outline" is a reserved one (don't know if it's for
MS import or general use). I think we should change this. A quite useful name
should not be used as a "hidden" style.
