This'll be dealt with in OO4.

If you had level styles set, you could look at the style inspector  
and you'll see it listed there. Or you can go to the style palette in  
the utility drawer and select the level styles until it highlights  
the row you're on. Other then that... nothing comes to mind, you  
could write an AppleScript to tell you.
