[scribus] Strange behaviour in 1.4.1

[Mike]

Hi John - thanks for taking the time to reply on this small problem. 
Yes, I've only used version 1.4.1 not having discovered it before. I 
simply go to the empty frame and delete it just like you. That is 
annoying but, not too much of a bother. It seems to be occurring 
randomly. However, I've noticed that in a new document with no text 
added, creating new pages sans a text frame then, adding a text frame 
seems to be OK (no ghost images appear :-)). However, when the page 
count is high (I am a writer and work with documents of about 150 pages) 
then, the ghost images seem to appear. This may be just coincidence but, 
it may be a starting point.
