[scribus] alignment of text frames after inserting a new page

are you working with automatic frames? if yes then, you should always add the frames at the end of the document.

if not:
- select the text frame on the page before the newly inserted
- use the unlink tool and click on the following text frame
- add a text frame in the newly created page if you have not done so yet
- select the text frame on the page before the newly inserted
- use the link tool and click on the text frame on the newly inserted
  page
- use the link tool and click on the text frame on the now unlinked text on the next page


it works in 1.5svn and i don't see any reason why it should now work in 1.3.5.1


ciao

p.s.: on next sunday we are starting a grafik labor in zurich: if you're in switzerland as your name would suggest, your are kindly invited to come and exchange your experiences with scribus and other graphics software (the main focus will be on photo editing with gimp, but we wish to promote an open mood!)
