Is there a way to modify the order in which styles appear in the Quick
Style List? It seems like it could be very useful, but, for example,
"Heading 1" isn't the one I'll use most often; I'd like to have
often-used ones at the start.

Click 'Options' at the bottom of the dialog and you will find a number of
sort options.

You can set your own recommended order for Quick Styles using the Styles
Manager. To access it, on the Home tab, in the Styles group, click the
dialog box launcher (little arrow in the bottom right corner) and at the
bottom of the Styles pane, click the Manage Styles button. Then on the
Recommend tab you'll find the ability to change the Recommended sort order.
If you want to change it for all new documents based on your Normal
template, use the "New documents based on this template" option at the
bottom.

Yes, that seems to do it. It wasn't at all obvious! Thank you.

You're welcome. :-)

The Styles Manager dialog box contains all types of style goodies and
options for managing styles. The most commonly overlooked set of options is
the Document Defaults (Set Defaults) which should now be used instead of
altering the Normal style in order to set your "base" style defaults. (In
case you're interested.)
