Idea Delivered Partially

We have keyboard shortcuts for removing formatting that are similar to Word - You can press Ctrl+Space on any formatted selection and it will remove all formatting from that selection, or you can press Ctrl+Alt+Space to remove all formatting from the segment. So while these are not specifically triggering "No Bold" etc. they might even be considered cleaner as the tags are removed completely rather than potentially inserting extra "no bold" tags or similar.

Adding shortcuts for “No Bold”, “No Italic” and “No Underline”

When the original segment is entirely in italics, bold or other formatting, the only way I know to remove that formatting is to click in the bottom right corner of the QuickInsert sub-tab, as shown below. Since the extra clicks can become very time-consuming in some cases, it would be very useful to have shortcuts (icons or keyboard) for performing the exact same function.

Also, it is so well hidden that I first thought it was impossible to remove the formatting in such cases, which also tends to demonstrate that adding shortcuts for that would be a great idea.

    Sometimes we are. I often come across text ranges where the source is italic but I am not allowed to use italic in the target. Most of the time I just have to remove the italic tag but sometimes the italic formatiing is part of a style (eg. hyperlink) which I should not remove. The only way to do this is by overriding the italic property of the style tag with a No Italic tag.
