[scribus] degenerate objects

That's exactly what I meant. But not a static list like "Always
exclude this object from pre-flight check" but an "Exclude this error
from the pre-flight check as long as the properties of the object
hasn't changed".

Then the documents sent to other editors for proof reading might have
errors that should have been fixed.

The problem isn't really a long list of errors, the problem is a few
errors spread out across the document. Because the pre-flight check
error list contains a row for each master page and a row for each
page, so I have to scroll to find the errors.

But I just realised that another thing that might help is for the
pre-flight check to NOT list pages without errors. I really can't see
the purpose of listing 6 master pages and 40 pages when there is an
error on ONE of the pages?
