A) Yes, I'm comparing this with Writer (with the idea of
consistently/homogeneity)
I'm more familiar with Writer. Doing stuff differently in Calc increases the
learning curve.

B) Bit out of my initial scope: there is also the matter of internal
consistently inside Writer. A gallery object uses the 'Position and Size
dialog' and a image the is handled in the image dialog; both dialogs have
different sizes. There is quite some overlap in function. Why can I manage wrap
in the dialog for Images, but not for Gallery Objects. In that case I need to
use the context menu.. Both are 'images' on the screen.

C) Having different dialogs for naming the object and adding Alt-text is rather
clumsy workflow. I have to open two separate dialogs.

Some additional context. Why the sudden interest in renaming images.. it's
caused by attempt to investigate the issue at bug 160231 (attachment 193145). I
looked through the image names in the navigator. I wanted to find 'missing'
images. However it's was no joy to use.

Next step: maybe I should rename a couple of those, making those images more
recognizable instead of image278.jpg. Argh this is hard. 

The sample file is also an illustrations how Images are used in Calc.. and
indirectly usefulness of proper labeling those images :-) 

In case of Writer you can also rename the image directly from navigator & even
access the image properties dialog... Calc can't :-( 

See also bug 160353/ bug 160352 for improvements to make the navigator actually
more productive Calc

So Calc lacks features which Writer has, and the do seems sensible to have in
Calc too (in the long term).
