Hotkeys help. For example, in LibreOffice, I love having Ctrl+[Number key] for
setting Header styles (1 through 6, respectively). In fact, if I'm forced to
work in MS Word, those are some of the first hotkeys that I set. Shortcuts like
that are great for keeping styles in mind, but sufficiently unobtrusive in
terms of applying them.
