Yeah, I used those features when importing, but what I'd really like is 
the ability to say "Style X in the OpenOffice doc should be mapped to 
Scribus style Y, and any inline formatting should be kept (or 
removed)". I'm probably being a little nitpicky here, but when you have 
a lot of different docs from a lot of different sources, and you're 
trying to unify the look of your publication, consolidating styles is a 
must.
