I forgot to mention that bug 118136 is related to this one, in that's two
symptoms that might have the same root cause.

The problem of 118135 is that exporting a PDF with "Slide 1", "Slide 2" etc.
(placeholder slide names) as their bookmarks are meaningless.

Either give meaningful names for PDF bookmarks, or don't make bookmarks for
those unnamed slides.

I meant the title text of each slide. The text you write in the "Click to add
title" text fields.
I think most users don't realize the "slide name" concept and its difference
from the "title". For me, I'll just write the titles and ensure they're almost
unique among the slides (for convenience of audience and readers). With that in
mind, I expect I never need to care about slide "names" at all and expect
Impress generate reasonable names for me. And that PDF bookmarks give quick
outline of the whole presentation. Saving my time of naming each bookmark
individually.
