When changing a page style in a document with tables that span pages, one
cannot configure any single page's style.

The document in the screenshots has a table that spans pages 1 and 2. Page 3 is
completely independent. The page has a custom page style added, called No
Footer, which as the name implies does not have a footer. This style was added
after the document already had a footer, with the intention of removing the
footer from page 2. For this purpose it worked fine. Now the user would like to
removed the footer from page 1 and add the footer back to page 2.

The following attachments illustrate this story:

1 - Starting configuration. Footer on pages 1 and 3. The goal is to have a
footer on pages 2 and 3.

2 - Clicked on page 2 and double clicked on Default. It can be seen that the
style is now Default but there is no footer on that page.

3 - Clicked on page 1 and double clicked on No Footer. It can be seen that page
1 now has no footer (correct) and page 2 has no footer (correct) but page 3
lost it's footer!

4 - Clicked on page 3 and double clicked on Default. It can be seen that page 3
now got its footer (correct) but page 1 gained a footer (incorrect) and page 2
lost its footer (incorrect).
