    Hi David,

wouldn't it be an option to store the formatting properties in question 
as application settings? This would clearly identify them as being 
application specific. You may use the name of the style in the settings 
to identify the style to which them belong. And to identify a frame, you 
can use either its name, or its xml:id.

Best regards

Michael

OK, why not.

I'd like to note that any of the "harmful" extensions people have thought of,
and are trying to prevent, can also be done this way ;-)
