This is bug 137298

Point here is the misleading "Statistics" variable name for all these fields.
It would be better to call it #Pages, #Paragraphs etc.

And then compare the behavior when *editing* such fields.

Editing a Statistics filed, one may still change the type of the statistics,
seeing the same list of variants in the middle listbox.

But editing a Page Number field, the "Page number", which initially was in the
middle box on insertion, goes to the left box (where initially "Page" was).

So there is a bug/inconsistency between the insertion dialog's categories. The
middle list must have the choices of the *subtype*, editable even after
insertion, and not the main types of the fields - "Page" pseudo-type should be
fixed in insert field dialog.

Basically this tdf#45048 is technically NOTABUG - if the field *types* (not
content of "select" middle box) is consistently shown as the field name.

Not sure, if this should be a general solution (so it would be more enhancement
than bug). It makes sense for type "statistics" and perhaps "page number" (if
previous or next page), but not for all the other types (see field dialog =>
Document => Type)
