Could be. At the same time one must aknowledge there are benefits you 
get from the "Get Text" command that you cannot access through 
copy/paste. Text filters and Stylesheet management come to mind.

How are we going to tell Scribus not to create a text frame if you don't 
want to (for instance, if you wish to really paste part of a text into 
an existing text frame) ? At the same time, when in a text frame it 
could happen you need another text frame into that one... Automagic ... 
hmmm...

What about using the new Frame menu associated with a keyboard shortcut? 
Hit that key and here's your frame, then paste... No clicks at all. Just 
2 keyboard commands. Now, that's quick. Real quick!

Just a few thoughts as a start.

Cheers!
