--- Comment #1 from V Stuart Foote <[email protected]> ---
Not a bug, the Standard template is not intended to normally be user modified
as it is dynamic and generated drawing from system locale and user profile
settings.

While the .uno:Watermark dialog (implemented at the 5.4 release for bug 88774)
simply does not take its defaults from what gets created/built into a default
(standard) template--meaning that changing your 'Basic Fonts' selection in UI's
Tools -> Options -> Writer will have/can have no effect on the Watermark.

Handling really no different than the default colors or fonts assigned to other
draw shapes.

The dialog (Format -> Watermark...) configures a custom fontwork shape and
already provides for a robust font selection. The Watermark/Classification
fontwork object is then built and included into the page header of a new
document OR template file.

And as included in a user template, when that user template is used to create a
new document, the Watermark fontwork object in the new document retains that
font selection and whatever text used.

See no reason to change that work flow of requiring user defined templates to
instantiate advanced features.

Enhancement might be to allow a stanza for the Watermark font in Expert
Configuration, and then written into user profile for user/admin to make the
font selection for Watermarks. But that would just be per user .XCU rather than
by template. But it would still not necessarily follow the profile/default
value of Basic Fonts.
