Let me provide some context around Mr. O'Brien.

1. He is very smart.
2. He is well versed with OpenOffice. Sufficiently well versed, that I 
have seen him (in person) teach detailed classes on OpenOffice.

In other words, I assume that he has looked in the obvious places. That 
said, and because Mr. Drescher asked, consider this link:

https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/images/9/96/WG40-WriterGuideLO.odt

When I look at this document, Frames begins on page 120.

The anchoring information is on page 123 and it is well written, and has 
the following relative to paragraph and character.

*To Paragraph*

The frame is associated with a paragraph and moves with the paragraph. 
It may be placed in the margin or another location. This method is 
useful as an alternative to a table for placing icons beside paragraphs. 
It is also used to center text on a page in documents which will be used 
in a master document (frames anchored to pages will disappear from the 
master document).

*To Character*

The frame is associated with a character but is not in the text 
sequence. It moves with the paragraph but may be placed in the margin or 
another location. This method is similar to anchoring to a paragraph.
