--- Comment #10 from Uwe Dippel <[email protected]> ---
Thanks for asking! I am new to (the new) Libreoffice, so to say, so I am not
used to a program that tries to do the thinking for me.
My workflow, to call it that, is to produce slides for my lectures and I
usually just open a new slide (or duplicate the previous one) with either one
text box or 2 in as columns. Then - and that is what I was able to do until now
- write some text into the box and add some drawing, or just put a drawing,
resize it so that I can add some remarks, sentences, or such. Some of the boxes
contain only drawing or only text. 

I know, and wrote, the simple workaround: clicking some place outside the slide
('workbench') and then insert->image, and then drag the image into the textbox.
It is possible, though a bore. Why can't I click where I want the image and
insert->image and actually get it there??
If one wanted it as background, and tiled(!) I'd prefer that one has to say so.
I don't want any developer to be able to take such an arbitrary decision for
the user. Maybe someone wants all images inserted to be scaled? or cropped? 
What a nonsense!

It is somewhat similar to the 'clever' behaviour of (the new) LibreOffice filed
as bug as well, that I cannot prevented it from scaling and snapping any image
into a chosen layout (bug 93924). 
These really put me off from liking LibreOffice as much as I would.
