--- Comment #8 from Heiko Tietze <heiko.tietze at documentfoundation.org> ---
We discussed this topic in the design meeting.

Adding some flag to the page break means to have it on the paragraph style,
which would be quite odd. The idea of a page style attribute to include/exclude
a certain styles from counting seems to be better. Such an option could be
handy on other modules too, for example bug 115288.

We also discussed briefly bug 71583 and believe there are use cases where
counting a certain kind of page styles makes sense (eg. pages with images). But
this number wouldn't be the total number of pages usable as variable in the
document but rather some kind of document information.
