So, the common settings has nothing to do with the current settings. 
They are just a collection of settings that it's likely that I might 
want to use.

I think that the problem here, what made me ask this question in the 
first place, is that you mix two things: The library of available 
standard build settings and The currently used build settings.
I think that this inspector would work better if you separated the two, 
ie. if the library of build settings did not show any state (they could 
indicate a default value, but should not show the state of the build 
setting currently used in the target / style), and if there was a way 
to view ALL build settings in effect for a particular target+style.

I'll file a feature/enhancement request.
