Working with Ooo-Impress for quite a while, I've come to realize that this part
of the Ooo-Suite is probably the one which gets the least attention by the
developers. Impress contains quite a number of very distressing 'features' which
just don't seem to change from version to version.
Take a peek at http://www.fkt.tu-bs.de/brenig/OpenOffice.shtml

For eg. issue 48179 "Cannot step back slideshow animations" has been around for
*many* *years* by now, with a potential 'workaround (?)' available only/maybe in
the next version - let's see.

The problem here is the system of weighing the relevance of an issue by 'vote
count'.

With quite a large number of users of Ooo-Writer, it is obvious that any kind of
request for enhancements of Ooo-Writer will immediately get a huge amount of
votes and thereby attract the interest of the developers. However, with the
number of users of Ooo-Impress remaining relatively small as compared to those
of the competitors product (sad as it is), even *severe* *bugs* like issue 68812
just don't get enough votes and therefore remain as they are 'NEW (?)' - even
after years.

So your best chance to get a fix on this issue is to increase the vote count to,
say 50 ... or maybe you have a way to fund a dedicated developer ... 

Anyway, I fear that issue 68812 will remain 'NEW' for the rest of my active
career :-(
