Summary	0016270: edit default styles when no document is open
Description	currently, there are many text formatting rules that cannot be defined in "preferences > item tools > text" (the one that currently bothers me is the text language). instead of further extending the text frame settings i suggest to remove from the settings all the formatting that can be defined through styles and let the user define the default styles through the style manager instead. as a first step, i'm willing to work on a patch that: - makes it possible to edit the default text styles when no document is open - stores the styles in the preferences further one we will need to: - read the stored information when creating the document default styles - remove the fields from the text tool's preferences - use the same schema for other items that have default styles (lines...) please comment to give hints on - is this doable? - what should i take care of? - any hint to make it easier to implement this. (of course in the future it should be possible to export a style and import it in a different scribus or save a style as the default one from the "normal" style manager")
