For example:
- Registering once,

Setting aside the autotext issue - isn't it possible to merge without
autotext, to fields in static forms? - is the point that OOo will not
recognize a data field unless it is registered, and provides no way to
explicitly specify an unregistered field?

Yes, that is correct. Registering is mandatory.
And of course you can use database-fields directly in documents, without the use of autotext.

Regards,
Cor
