I was just now looking at this using the tabbed notebook interface (though I'm running the 6.3Alpha0 build, so maybe there is some difference there from 6.2) and I see that the different places where the header/footer dialog is available already enables or disables depending on what was selected in the page format dialog. Given that the page format button is next to the header/footer button it becomes a visual clue that when you disable them in the page format dialog and return to the main window the h/f dialog button is immediately disabled.
Plus it is good to see that both the page format and header/footer dialog is available during print preview, which is where one can notice that it is or isn't there, right. My question Is; Will this change in menus to happen in the 6.2 release?
