Hi All,

I'll put my vote in for having the sample text insert back in the 
context menu. As a "non-pro" user, inserting sample text is something I 
always do with a new document, and the context menu, IMHO, is the most 
intuitive place to have it. As a new Scribus user, and also new to DTP, 
a few months ago, I probably wouldn't have found this feature were it 
not in the context menu (or even realised such a feature existed).

Cheers,
Peter
