When there is a text:cond-style-name attribute and a text:style-name attribute is present, the text:style-name attribute value will be a reference to the style that the conditional style determines to be applicable.  That is, at the point the ODF document was produced in its persistent format, text:style-name value names the style that the conditional style determines to be the applicable style.

> In the ODF 1.0/1.1/1.2 schemas, both text:cond-style-name and text:style-name are optional attributes in the set of common paragraph attributes.  In ODF 1.2, the description of text:cond-style-name specifies that a text:style-name should be present when a text:cond-style-name is present.  In ODF 1.0/1.1, the description of text:cond-style-name specifies what the value of text:cond-style-name is, implying that it will be present.
