Unless I'm mistaken, my understanding is that srt_style_apply() honors the
global style of the dialog. Typically in ASS, each dialogue has is
associated with a style (generally "Default" but can be another one
defined in the header), so these style are first applied. Then, every
special tag in the dialogue itself will trigger srt_style_apply().
