Actually, I would like to ask for 2 enhancement regarding the appearance of
header and footer in the writer application:

a) visually dimm (watermark-like) header / footer
-------------------------------------------------
Dimm the appearance of header and footer while in the document (body) editing
mode (in comparison to the print preview and print mode), by giving them a
softer appearance, like a watermark.
-> This way one can easily edit the body section of a document without being
distracted by header and footer, which are often very similar to the body text
(and are mostly the same for all the pages). Still one does clearly see how the
document looks like with header/footer.


b) protect header and footer against accidental editing
-------------------------------------------------------
Using a double click rather a single click to enter editing mode for existing
header / footer.
This helps user to avoid accidentally modifying header / footer.
(I know, there are work arounds, so one could protect it by an additional step.
But let's make it easier not more difficult.)


I often use templates for different documents and it would make life much 
easier.

While I find plenty areas of OOo superior to MS Office, I find the above 2 areas
 more convenient solved in MSO (in editing the document body and editing
existing headers / footers).


(others were also looking for it: see

Thanks in advance for this enhancement.
