--- Comment #4 from Matthew Francis <[email protected]> ---
The two .docx mentioned above have a problem in the same category; when an
image isn't named within the OOXML of the .docx, the image isn't shown
correctly in Navigator.

In the case of import from .docx, it seems that the symptom is slightly
different for some images - the image shows as a blank entry in Navigator
rather than being missing altogether. Clicking on such broken entries does not
select the correct image in the document, but always and only the last such
image. In addition, (some?) unnamed images of this sort appear to be
automatically assigned a name when saved as ODT (they become images "1", "2",
"3", ...), which doesn't happen with the originally attached document.

So, currently:
- Unnamed images can be inserted by macro
- Unnamed images can pass through import filters (which?) without being named
- Some but not all unnamed images get named when they are saved
- Navigator shows some unnamed images as non-functional blank entries, and
others not at all


In terms of solutions;

Option 1: Fully allow unnamed images
- Word appears able to have unnamed images in a .docx, so it might be
considered reasonable to allow saving them back the same way.
- In this case, Navigator should be made to show all such images in a form that
allows them to be interacted with properly.
- At present, you can't create an unnamed image in Writer - deleting the name
causes a new one to be inserted automatically when the properties dialog is
closed. If they are to be allowed, then this should probably be made possible
(the images would have to be given some other placeholder under Navigator).

Option 2: Fully forbid unnamed images
- Macro interactions and all import filters would have to be audited to ensure
that all images that are inserted/loaded are named and properly visible in
Navigator from birth.
