           Product: LibreOffice

Demonstrates Issue

Bodhi Moksha
LibreOffice 5.1 (dev build)

Steps:
1. Open writer document;
2. Insert an image on page 2
3. Insert a caption (right click on image) with test as caption
4. Go back to page 1
5. Type the following "This is a test, refer to illustration "
6. Insert -> Cross-Reference -> Illustration -> select your Illustration 1 ->
Insert

**OBSERVE: "Page" is default for "Insert reference to"

Observed: You'll see that logically what you want to do is reference
Illustration 1, instead you see Illustration 2 (because it is referring to the
page not the illustration).

In my mind the default should be Insert Reference To: NUMBER" as this will be
far more common than referring to a page generally. 

Asking for UX input here - an easy hack so marking it as such for dev input.
