Are you talking about writer or calc.
In writer I use a headers with graphics and footers with graphics and
text, so your proposal may not be so appropriate in that instance and it
is still necessary to place the content directly into the header or
footer. The style refers to the layout rather than the content, so as
writer now is, the style is appropriate.
