Clean up styles

I've begun the work of making the implementation of style methods more uniform and correct, but this got to be so big that I decided to stop half-way.

This PR will represent "cleaning up" `arc` - `list_box` (using the list in #711).

I'll make lots of inline comments on what I considered "cleaning" and I'm eager to hear feedback.
Or well, is style the method that gathers everything etc.? A bit out of sync with it right now. If that's the case, `@style` usage might be justified.
