Problem description: 

I used to insert "other fields" which is a calculated field with cross-references. It has worked with Libreoffice R.3.4, but as I upgraded to 3.5 this won't work.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Set up of new field : Insert-Fields-Other, then Variables tab, select "number range" type, selection "text", name "paragraph" (new name I set up), format "arabic numbers", then Insert and Close.
2. After writing few words, I want to insert a cross-reference to the last reference I've insert : Insert-Referenced field, "Selection" : I should select "1" (if I want to reference the first item) and "Insert reference to" "Numbering", and Insert


Current behavior:
The "selection" area is empty... 

Expected behavior:
All referenced fields in the document should be listed, and then I should select the one I want to point to. (behavior of Libreoffice 3.4)
