[Steps]
1. Create a writer doc
2. Type several paragraphs, and Use a "Style and Formatting" on then, such as
"Heading 1"
3. Put the cursor at the beginning of the first paragraph, "Ctrl + Enter" to
move then on the 2nd page. From top menu, "Insert" -> "Indexes and Tables" ->
"Indexes and Tables...", click OK button on the "Insert Index/Table" dialog.
4. "Insert" -> "Header" -> "default", type some words in header field
5. "Insert" -> "Footer" -> "default", type some words in footer field
6. "File" -> "Save" to save the file as type as "Microsoft Word 97/2000/XP".
7. "File" -> "Reload", observe the result.
8. Open the saved file by MS Word, observe the result.

[Result]
In step 7: The words in Header and Footer disappear except first page.
In step 8: The Header and Footer field has been disabled, neither seen nor edit.

[Expectation]
Header and Footer display normally.

Part of the problem is the section breaks added in the conversion process.
Each table of contents/figures gets a continuous section break before the title
of the table, between the title and the table, and at the end of the table.
Each of those section breaks offer a chance to trash the headers and footers.
