For example,

+ Local Variables
|-- Declarations
|---References

The UI for setting color and font attributes should support inheritance.  For
example, a tri-state checkbox where the greyed state indicates inherit from
parent element.

This would also make it easier to find things since the current list of
configurable items is very large.

Good idea.
