May I add another feature request? It has recently become apparent to me that a major UK project, proposing the use of DITA, may fall on the ability, or not, to alter the appearance (colour, etc.) of DITA output text based on the attribute value for the 'importance' element.

</p>
<p style="margin: 0pt;">
<span>Easy access to the DITA-related EDDs is important to this project, and presumably to anyone else who has different levels of 'bad stuff will happen' warnings.</span>
</p>

E.g. paragraph formats for table of contents and index, reference page names, master pages etc. Currently these are different in different languages of the FrameMaker user interface and cause problems (or at least work-arounds) when the German or the international FrameMaker is used.

Here options are missing like importing a single format into other files of a book, replacing single formats with other formats in all files of a book, deleting single formats in all files of a book etc. In my oppinion this is very important when using FrameMaker for years.
