There definitely is a bug in the wording (and maybe placement, etc.) of this
"offset" thing. It definitely provokes the problem in understanding of its
goal.

However, there should be no way to *set* the page number through the field. In
LibreOffice, the page number is set through properties of a page break. That
must stay, and there should be no hidden connections between fields and page
breaks. Convenience features like "insert break" dialogs are fine.

Arguing that "this is what users want" may indicate a problem in UX; but this
is definitely *not* a definitive "this is how it must work" - otherwise, this
PoV forces "every program is bound to what another, most widespread program
does" - just because people naturally want to do the same as they are
accustomed to in another software; and the percentage of these users would
necessarily be dominant. This just prevents any innovation / other ways of
implementing features.
