An interesting idea was reported in here to, if Body Text was used,
to
define "Normal" as something like Arial Bold, 13 pt, purple, with
red
marching ants around it; this serves as an indicator that, at this
paragraph, the correct style has obviously not been applied yet ...

But since Normal, by default, is the parent of many (all?) styles in
Word, this would be tricky. The setting would transfer to all of those
styles!
