I think  Issue 29139 is different in nature...

Yes, issue 58981 also describes one part of the problem (but that issue was
reported later).
  
BTW this issue describes another pronblem:How the page-count changes. The
threads describe several aspects of THAT issue (Including WHY some possibilities
are ruled out as root cause).

If  issue 58981 is to be handled independently, we should put a dependendency
link in both these issues, and then concentrate on the larger issue described 
here: 

Why does the page count change?

To sum up the past discussion (so that we can carry it forward):
1. It can't be due to a background process: Even when OOo changes the page
count, it does not treat the document as changed (When we try to close the
document, OOo does not tell us that the document is changed, and should it save
the document?)

2. If we repeat the entire experiment a few times, the initial page count is the
same in each experiment. In other words, the page-adjustment process begins in
each sessiona afresh: It has no sense of history.

3. At this time, the entire document flickers, and so does the Navigator.
Further, some entries in the Navigator are grayed in the beginning, and as the
page count reduces, these entries turn black. (What is the meaning of a
gray-colored entry in the Navigator? And when this entry turns black, what is
the corresponding change happening in the actual document? Probably THIS is a 
clue.)

4. Some tables and images keep jumping forwards and backwards in a never-ending
oscillatory motion. (Probably this is another clue why the process never settles
down: It is not a "convergent" process.) In a electronic circuit, I would
describe this as an unstable system that oscillates. To stop the oscillation, we
have to change some timing, or break a loop. Probably there is some equivalent 
here?
