Argh, nasty situation.
I remember a quite extensive discussion in OpenOffice.org some year or 
so ago (don't over-ask my memory) where the behaviour was discussed what 
to do when an image is selected and a new image is inserted. And that in 
Writer, Impress/Draw, Calc.
And indeed, it was about: should a newly inserted image replace the 
selected one or be added alongside.
So no doubt, that the change you experience is a result of what has been 
discussed then.

I think, without real code work, there is little relief for you...
But maybe the behaviour in Draw is different (I'm afraid not...)

Hmm, it would not be too difficult to write a macro to do the changes 
for you. Maybe that's an idea?

Kind regards,
