The only disadvantage being that the module will now add 18 new

How about defining custom Insets instead of styles? This would put the
new objects in a less prominent place (i.e. not interfering with the
"normal" styles), clearly mark the as something special and also allow to
minimize the header boxes.
As I see it, there are 3 solutions:
1) We accept Uwe's solution because it is here now and it is a very old
and very desired user request.
2) Somebody is interested in working now towards Günter's solution:
I would go even further: only 2 top-level insets: InsetFooter and
InsetHeader (which can be based on Flex:inset).
2-a) These insets only exist as a transport vehicule for Uwe's defined
layout modules. This would elegantely isolate header/footer changes
inside those insets without having the layout combo populated by those
additional layouts. I am not sure though it is possible to make some
layout visible only when within some inset.
2-b) We just hard-code a 3x1 table inside these two insets for left,
center and right
-> No need for any layout module.
2-c) We create 3 sub-insets for each:
InsetHeaderRight, InsetHeaderCenter, InsetHeaderLeft, InsetFooterRight,
InsetFooterCenter, InsetFooterLeft
3) The best (IMHO) solution: have a dialog with 6 embedded work-areas
for the left, center and right of header and footer. This would require
someone to be interested of course :-)
