I know what Master Pages are. But in QuarkXPress or InDesign you are still able to change Objects on document pages, that were placed on Master Pages. For that you have to hold ctrl on your keyboard. It is very inconvenient to put text frames on every single page in your document or to copy them from a master page to a document page.
