--- Comment #5 from tmacalp <[email protected]> ---
It appears that this bug affects more than just Draw.  As of LO 4.4, this bug
affects ANY LO object that allows for setting the area to an image.

For instance, in Writer, this affects applying an image background to page,
header, footer, paragraph, frame, table, etc...

This regression is really quite nasty.  Basically, once you've set an object's
area to an image, the only way to open the object's properties dialog without
losing that image is to somehow open the dialog without landing on the area
tab.  Since the dialog remembers your last tab, I guess a work-around is to
open the dialog, click another tab, cancel, and then reopen the dialog.  But
that is a lot of extra work.

The more I think about it, the more I think merging the fill types of "Bitmap"
with "Image" into a single tab is a mistake.  There may be a lot of overlap
with their settings, but it's unintuitive, cludgy, and currently broken.

I'm upping the priority from Normal->Major because it is extremely difficult to
set object properties from the dialog without losing data (your image).  It's
also a regression that now affects multiple components.

This should probably be moved from Draw to something more generic, UI?
