I don't think there would be any problems at all 
... the approach doesn't impact on the parity of 
the pages encountered.  Thinking about it, 
though, you might have to think twice about first and last tests.

I acknowledge the restriction I've imposed, but 
it would be a challenge to have to break and then 
recreate any depth of nested formatting objects 
to reestablish all of the inheritance imposed by 
the traits triggered by the properties.

I hope you find in the long run that the approach 
helps you meet your objectives.  Others have found it very useful.
