How to update the content of a textframe on masterpages, that are not based on each other?

This isn’t so complicated and need only minor preparation:

1. Create on your first mp an empty textframe on both sides
2. Paste in place those two frames to the other masterpages
3. Write your text in the first frame on mp 1
4. Click in your textframe, choose “Place and Link”
5. Choose “Place multiple and keep in conveyor”
6. Simply click with your loaded cursor in every empty frame on your masterpages
7. Make your changes in the first frame
8. Update all occurrences at once with the links panel

btw: There exists a real watermark-feature in InDesign too, but this is only available via scripting!
