Update TOC can inherit last applied character formatting if TOC Entry defined with just font family

[MikeTO]

If you apply bold or italic to some text and then update the TOC, the TOC entries will be bolded or italicized if the TOC text style is defined with just the font family and no traits.

1. Open the attached test document.
2. Change the body text to bold and/or italic.
3. Update the TOC.

This is the same bug as creating a new note. If you apply bold and then create a note and the note style doesn't fully define the traits, the note will inherit the last traits you applied.

These are annoying bugs because you could apply bold or italic and then an hour later update the TOC or create a new note and be confused why it's bold or italic. You have to undo the TOC update or note creation, apply and un-apply bold or italic to something, and then update the TOC or create the note again.

BTW other users have had this difficulty before but it hasn't been reported as a bug.
