Some random thoughts:

 - often fields are in Headers/Footers.  
   Would be good to have a way to easily identify them.

Fields
  Header
    Pagenumber
    DocInformation:Modified
  Footer
    Date (fixed)
    etc.
  Page 7 
    Number range Text
  Page 9
    Number range Figure


("page numbers" is a luxury, given that Frames, Objects, Images do not come
that way. The liberty of random thoughts.  But likely to make it easier to
guess what the field is doing and/or where they are appearing.)

 - would it be possible to give "names" to the fields (comparable to naming
Frames, Objects, Images)?  (but I suspect that except for user-defined
variables, there is not an existing facility for this.)

 - would the context menu in Navigator also have an "Edit" option?

(at the end of the day, even just having a flat list of variables, as shown in
the screenshot,  with navigate to by double-click, would be a useful
improvement.)
