Sorry; I'm not giving in to easily. I want some kind of answer. From what I see
it does some quirky 'random' thing. Sure code wise this maybe somehow
explainable. 

I have actually two (maybe even more) issues with the navigator listing.

A) Object names are generated. They generated on insertion; So I assume
sequential on insertion time. Shuffling the objects around after insertion,
makes objects numbers are kind of random mess
B) Objects name are apparently created on free spots. So delete Object1.. they
new insert item will be called Object1 (surely not chronological nor
sequential. Copy A formula in the example file & paste.. it below
C) Now Cut they just pasted object, and paste it the beginning of the document.
Object1 moves from last position in the navigator up to number 1 (so list in
navigator isn't chronological).. but sequential to document position? Insert to
Charts and shuffle them around.. the navigator objects order of the objects
every time.. 

The current implementation unpredictable 
A) They object naming is troublesome (numbering; without logical order).  Not
sure what the alternative would be Object + HASH)
B) They numbering doesn't start with say with 0001 but with 1  so not a nice
list; jumbled with Object01 followed by Object010. 
C) They order isn't sequential nor chronological. Still no clue how it actually
works; But sequential to document would make more sense; I think..
D) And if we gonna export this to DOC/DOCX/RTF and reopen you get again
something else :-(.
