Given your comments - please consider confirming. Also,

You can classify it like that, if you prefer. I think of it as a "usability
bug", but sure.

What is "it" in "if you change it additionally"?

Right now, in Page Style, there are "Header", "Footer" and "Footnote" tabs.

For the UI people:

1. I would like for all four places where I intuitively searched to _either_:
1.1 have the Page-Footnote-Style available directly (e.g. an extra tab in
Footnote & Endnote settings), or
1.2 have a button which opens up the Page-Footnote-Style settings in a (modal?)
dialog
1.3 Indicate, with a text label, where one can change the Page-Footnote-Style
settings.
2. Please consider having a right-click on the separator be a different thing
than a right-click on the area of an actual footnote.
