Drag from the file manager and drop into Scribus, simply provides a relative link to the image in the sla file But copying from gimp into the clipboard and then pasting into Scribus from the clipboard does indeed provide that isInlineImage="1" inlineImageExt="png" ImageData .. entry Makes for a huge sla file, but nonetheless works.
