That is not good news but it is good to know for sure. Unfortunately we
don't own the EDD. It is handed to us by the customer so I guess we'll just
have to carry on as we are!
Does anybody else have workarounds?

You can select more than one item and map them at the same time, but that's
about it. Personally, I find it easier to design the EDD to point to
FrameMaker styles, then map the styles. It keeps the formatting details out
of the EDD and makes the conversion from WWP much easier. Customization of
the code is easier, too.
