On the topic of constraining style usage within Word, I have observed that:

   - post hoc validation gains slightly more traction [1] (there is some
   XSLT in there, so still relevant to this list, I hope)
   - constraint of this kind tends to be favoured more in journal article
   workflows
   - making your Word template as visually *unlike* the document it is
   intended to render as (via creative use of colours and fonts) concentrates
   the author/editor more on its meaning.
