RPT: wrong default of page number position

0. open a new database 1. create a table with any fields 2. open the report designer and bind it to the table 3. open the add field container and d&d any field in the design area 4. open the page numbers dialog (from menue: insert) -> the default position is: top of page (header), but usually the page number is wanted on the bottom of the page
set keyword 'new_implementation'
I could imagine that this is a cultural flavour, i.e. other cultures might have other default position. We should perhaps interview our Extras team, which creates and localizes the business templates.
The Report Designer iTeam decided to close this as WONTFIX. It's hard to find a default which suites all cultures/locale, so we won't change the current state, the more since it can be easily changed by the user herself.
Feel free to open again.
