It looks it is complete.

Therion uses its default symbol (on of those from the list). They are not
highlighted in the list now, but if you want to see them - just use "legend
all" in your layout.

Yes, it is possible, but then you need to redefine symbol in a symbol-set you
are using. E.g. if you are using ASF symbol set, use

def p_station_temporary_ASF = 

instead of just

def p_station_temporary =

Now I do not remember, why it was done this way. May be there was no special
reason for this and this behavior (which is not intuitive) needs to be
changed.
