Actually I'd vote against 'Office' (thus for
'Graphics-->Layout').
Ubuntu and OpenSuse once had Scribus in 'Office', and even
worse, it was in subsection 'Wordprocessing'; several users
I've been instructing in usage of linux desktops tried it
out - and got stranded right away. They got the idea that
Scribus was an OOo-alternative and had no clue what DTP meant.
