To get back onto the original subject......

No, the opposite, what you're talking about there is like a feature history tree, where you can turn fillets and holes on and off.

This is how I see it, if you have a solid cube and apply a fillet and a hole, I still consider the cube with fillets and hole as one item so it should be under one style/layer, not to be confused with one entity.

For Michael's example:

I would expect the blend to be under the active style because it is a single item that I made under that style.
Now if I was to join those 3 surfaces, I am making it one item, so I would expect it to be under the active style, if I separated them, I think they should resort back to the original styles that I modeled them in ( if it's possible, coding wise, with MoI) or they all separate under the active style, which I don't mind either.

Hope this makes sense.
