            Bug ID: 112634
           Summary: Incorrect/defunct database shown when trying to add
                    further fields after mail merge
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.0.0.0.alpha0+ Master
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Keywords: bibisectRequest, regression
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org

Sample address list

The attached spreadsheet is a sample address list that matches with address
block fields with US locale.
As a prerequisite, delete any possible unnecessary/bogus leftover database
connections. (Options; LibreOffice Base -> Databases)

Save an empty document, which will be the input of the mail merge (so the
connection to the address list will be embedded).
Start the mail merge wizard.
At step 3, select the attached sample address list, and tick "This document
shall contain an address block."
Move to the last step (don't insert salutation), and click Finish.
Try inserting a field via Insert -> Field -> More Fields...; Database tab.

=> There's a database with the name of the address list, but clicking the [+]
results in an endless spinner (LO doesn't freeze, the dialog can be closed).
Note that since it's an embedded datasource, it should probably be called
EmbeddedDatabase, as it is normally called in that case... I think?

Observed with LO 6.0 daily build (2017-09-22_22:54:52,
0db08432c69adc36ed464c1f7c8e672acb3752d) / Windows 7.
In 5.4.1.2 both databases are in the list, the one with the file name doesn't
work, but the one named EmbeddedDatabase does.
=> partially a regression in 6.0.
