Apparently this bug is known since 2012 and nobody cares. Sure it may be a minor issue but it adversely affects new users (like Linux and FOSS converts). Original statement from a would-be Linux convert (now Windows 7/MS Office user): "How should I trust a word processor/Excel replacement to do their work as good as (or better than) MS Office if they don't even get a simple help image right?"
To a non-technician, it helps building TRUST, getting minor things like this right, that technical-oriented people might laugh at. Building TRUST in Linux and FOSS *is* important. I currently experience this bug on Ubuntu 14.04 and Linux Mint 17.
