--- Comment #3 from Heiko Tietze <heiko.tietze at documentfoundation.org> ---
Clearly a desired feature. MSO allows to manipulate field variables via "Insert
field characters" (Ctrl+F9) and "{ = {NUMPAGES} - 1 }". Quite tedious too. And
saving this as ODF document breaks the formula.

Besides introducing a standard approach to not count pages with a certain
style, I wonder if we should also consider bug 71583 "There is no page count
field for different page styles or sections", which requests "page 1 of 10" for
one part of the document and another "page 1 of 10" for a different part.

A duplicate resp. different use case is bug 149981 "Footer Page numbers with
endnotes". Usually we make the newer ticket a duplicate of the older but in
this case I'd prefer the more generic description.

And we have a kind of see also bug 99189 "Add option to exclude footnotes,
endnotes and textboxes and inline citations from word count".
