Creating a magazine is creating lots of articles and merge them.
So my wish is : please fix all merge related issues, with styles mainly.

Importing a page or a style, copy and paste bits of styled text from one document to another document :
these basic operations have style related bugs that need to be fixed =
smartly deal with style-name-conflicts, prompting the user for options when required.

+ creating a magazine is a project involving several documents that evolve together : create "project" management 
functionnalities, with the ability to define, use and sync shared objects, shared styles, shared options etc and some 
global command : create PDF etc.

+ creating a magazine requires to work with multiple authors : create collaboration tools using the cloud or distant 
folders ; create "distant content" frames with sync management.

But most basic and necessary is correct style management :
importing document-pages or style-objects, copy-and-pasting bits of styled texts has to yield satisfaying results, 
prompting the user for options when required because of conflicting style names for different styles characteristics.

Xmas is a time when one hopes...
Enjoy !
