It can be done via a ContentControlOnExit macro, but it's hardly intuitive:

Code:

Private Sub Document_ContentControlOnExit(ByVal CCtrl As ContentControl, Cancel As Boolean)
With CCtrl
  .Type = wdContentControlRichText
  .Range.Font.Bold = False
  .Range.Words.First.Font.Bold = True
  .Type = wdContentControlDropdownList
End With
End Sub
