It is not a problem, which comes with a new dialog, but the problem exists
already in the current "Header and Footer" dialog. In Master View it looks, as
if you can set the content of the footer-field. But the content of the
footer-field never belongs to a Master page. [The footer-field is the part with
placeholder-text <footer>, which is gray.]

To see what I mean open the attached document.
Goto first slide, then switch to Master View. Open the 'Header and Footer'
dialog and look at the line 'Footer text:'. You will see "1First version inside
footer1". Cancel and close Master View.
Goto second slide, then switch to Master View. Again open the 'Header and
Footer' dialog and look at the line 'Footer text:'. You will see "2Second
version inside footer2". Cancel and close Master View.

I think, these dialogs need a deep rework.

An additional idea for a solution: Make different dialogs for Master View and
for Normal View.
