Added the UX list, and to summarize the issue is about a disabled menu entry in
Calc after switching off Header/Footer by default at the page dialog.

Actually I don't see this as a big issue. It was the same before with the
little difference that the user switched H/F off manually. Okay, it's a big
difference. But still, it's more or less the same in all other modules where
you first have to enable H/F. By moving the disabled option to the Edit menu it
becomes more clear that this dialog does not Insert.

The alternative is somewhat like kompilainenn suggested in bug 121777 and I
doubt it's easier to understand. 

Unfortunately the topic is urgent as the patch went into 6.2.
