--- Comment #14 from Heiko Tietze <heiko.tietze at documentfoundation.org> ---
The use case of View > Page Break is primary to a) see where exactly it breaks,
ie. what data are taken on the same page, b) to verify the automatic page
breaks [1], c) get feedback for the effect of Format > Page > Sheet > Page
Order, and secondary d) to see on what page number the data point will be (not
so sure why it matters if <foo> is on p7 or p8; and the effective page number
depends heavily on what is set-up on the print dialog). The enhancement would
solve this and not have a negative bearing on the other requirements.

So let's take the number of pages on previous sheets into account for the
number.

If we use the actual page number we should also take into account what is set
under Format > Page > Layout > Page Number and show roman literals, for
example, if set. And the option "first page number" is also ignored today.
