Report Builder what does unchecking 'Display header for this page' property actually do?

Doh looks like Report Builder just blew away my Page Header.  How does one get the Page Header page back if the 'Display header for this page' property of the Header Page object has been unchecked?  Or is this a 'you <expletive> m$ !' situation :}

    You should be able to right click on the body, select insert and insert a page header.

    Yes to add/insert a page header we have a large number of options.  But to restore a page header there appears to be none.  I believe that the 'Display header for this page' property should not be there and is a bug.  Just raising the issue here to make sure before I go ahead and raise a bug report.

     

    And for correctness lets list all the exciting ways m$ allows one to add/insert a page header (and footer) in RB.

    - Insert > click Header icon > Add Header

    - right mouse click on Body object > Insert > Page Header

    - right mouse click on Report object > Add Page Header

     

    Please post here if there are any other ways the Page Header/Footer can be added and inserted so we can learn even more ways ðŸ¤£ to insert Page Header/Footer.   

     

    Thank you m$ for making so many paths to add/insert these major objects but none to restore an existing but hidden Page Header/Footer.  This is a bug that one can loose a whole lot of work in one single click.
