When saving and then opening a document containing "show variable" fields that 
show the value of text fields, all show "0". There is no easy way to fix this. 
Refreshing the field's value using F9 does not work. Neither does cutting the 
field and pasting it back in. The only solution is to open the field, remember 
which variable it shows, deleting the field, and creating a new field showing 
the variable in question. Since this bug affects all "show variable" fields in 
the document, this results in a manual search-and-replace chore through the 
whole document.

How to encounter:
*Insert "set variable" fields in the document that assign some text to a 
variable.
*Insert "show variable" fields that show the value of the variables. Mine were 
in a header, but I don't think it matters.
*Notice how the field displays the text.
*Save the document and close it.
*Open the document.
*Notice how all "show variable" fields everywhere display "0".
Things I tried:
*No amount of F9-ing will fix it, neither on the document as a whole, nor on 
the individual fields in any order.
*Double clicking the field and clicking OK in the dialog - no change.
*Cutting the field and pasting it back in - no change.
*Deleting the field and inserting a fresh new one. This helps, but the next 
time you reopen the document the problem recurs.

(P2: User data is corrupted in an easy-to-encounter way)
(save-export: Actually I of course can't know if this happens on save or 
open...)
