It looks like rev 19294
http://scribus.net/websvn/comp.php?repname=Scribus&compare[]=/trunk/@19293&compare[]=/trunk/@19294
introduced a sometime very painfull issue.
When editing the content of a text frame, DEL deletes the frame itself.
http://bugs.scribus.net/view.php?id=12498 describe some specific situations where it happens,
but it happens in other random cases, and depending on the machine it can happen very often
in allmost all DEL text frame edit mode uses.
ATM, solution for user seems to use scribus Preferences so as to not bind DEL to OBJECT > DELETE
(one can suppress the binding, or bind CTRL+DEL or SHIFT+DEL instead)
So as to fix the code, it could be that the "Object delete" action
on a frame should first check that scribus is not in "Content edit" mode.
