This is my personal favourite, even better could be to display a
(FIFO) history, not 'styles in use' so even if I remove some content
(it happens at times), I have quick access to styles; This would be
like for the font list
(http://wstaw.org/m/2012/12/09/plasma-desktopev2170.png).

OTOH, for the record, LibreOffice shows most common styles, what means
Heading 4..10 is hidden what makes the list reasonably short.
