--- Comment #2 from Regina Henschel <rb.henschel at t-online.de> ---
Inserting a field into a Draw textbox is not implemented, although it would be
possible from file format. Such fields are direct child elements of the
<text:p> element. There exists the similar bug 35033 about allowing OLE objects
like Math or allowing images. But is is not duplicate, because for those
support for a <draw:frame> element is needed.

If you are in Draw and enter e.g. a page-number field, than you can manually
add text to it. So I see no reason, why it should not be possible in Writer.

I think, no UI advise is needed.

Workaround: Writer has frames for rich content. It is in menu Insert > Frame.
