--- Comment #37 from V Stuart Foote <vstuart.foote at utsa.edu> ---
In the see also bug 57158 there was discussion of opening a enhancement for
better UX in handling of the Page Break w/Style change. Never pursued...

@Cor, Heiko -- I had to poke around a bit for this behavior, but it is clearly
identified in the Help for Insert - Manual Break [1], but the 6.2/6.3/6.4
newHelp needs a tweak to reposition it under More Breaks. And the "Inserting
and Deleting Page Breaks" article [2] probably should have an Info tip to use
the dialog to include style.

As Mike & Dieter said, it works fine when one manages their styles correctly
(i.e. don't modify & apply the Default page style and expect stability). 

Otherwise do we need to give the novice user more hand holding?
