Allow usage of Data Merge within the Slug
We often use internal templates, that utilize the slug area of documents to handle file-specific data. Often we will utilize Data Merge to populate these fields, but we can only do so if our text fields are moved from the slug area, into the document. This of course forces us to move the slug-specific content back into the slug on what can easily be hundreds of documents.
Please expand Data Merge to being useable for document text fields that don't lie directly on the page(s).

indesign is "not quite that smart"..
if that helps, you can fool him by dragging a liitle bit the text box inside the page..
