[Scribus] bug and feature request

I'm not actually sure that that is a bug in scribus as I've seen this
happen with a large number of applications which have gifs which utilise
a transparency. Personally, I would avoid using gifs if you can as a few
weeks back those lovely folks from Compuserve (or whoever now own them)
won an extension to be able to obtain royalties from anyone using gifs.
PNGs and JPGs are far nicer to manipulate ;-)

TTFN
