In Writer, the page number (format/position) is stuck to the specific page
style.
In Impress, the page number (format/position) is stuck to the specific.. master
page.

Semantic discussion..

I agree that that is unfortunate. But breaking the logic "design&formatting
versus inserting" (similar to Writer), and hiding the features that basic users
will look for, seems even less ideal to me.
