on top of what owen answered: hopefully, scribus won't ever do any 
imposition [1] . we need a free application for it and there was some 
work around podofo to create one.

DTP is about placing content on a page, not arranging pages for the 
printer. and it would be nice if we could keep it that way!

ciao
