I've been playing with 1.2.1 (cvs) and apparently scribus does have this 
feature. When the new document dialog box comes up, there is a check box for 
"automatic text frames" which does create a page sized (but within the 
margins) text frame and links it to the previous one whenever you add a new 
page.

I've only played a little with it so far though. Does anyone know if you can 
enable this feature AFTER you've started creating a new document (i.e. didn't 
check the box initially)?
