If anything, I'm quite in favor of this type of option... let it be a zipped collect folder for as far as I care... Furthermore... I can really imagine myself fiddling with a layout... importing a picture... not liking it ... fetching another one... still not liking it... tweaking the first one in Gimp... importing that one again... etc... Basically, I'd have a .sla file needing only 1 picture... but Scribus will become sluggish because of all the copy/delete action involved in this type of collecting... Just my first practical impression. I guess a "collect" feature is best at the end. I would be happy seeing an option to save as "collected sla.zip" for example. ;) Jurgen.
