This request is not for a general LO user, but for testers and advances users.
If we want to test Mail Merge, we should be able to quickly set it up, not to
add each time external database. Example is bug 139906, you wouldn't have to
create and register simple.ods, but you could just use built-in adresses. 

Most simple (for me) would be to use View-Data Sources and select (now
non-existing, here asked for) built-in database "Mail Merge" with pre-populated
common fields:
Title   First Name      Last Name               Email Address          
Password  

So, idea is to create new database, like an existing Bibliography. Feel free to
add some more fields and more records. 
Mail Merge can be used via Tools-Wizard but now it also can use only
Bibliography, which doesn't have fields commonly used in mail merge.
