[scribus] interesting phenomena with linked text frames

Not sure if I would consider this a feature or not, but here is 
something I noticed tonight. Try this:

Make 3 text frames, then link them. Fill with some arbitrary text so all 
have something in them.

Now, in various combinations, set one or more as a PDF annotation (can 
just leave as a text type for this example).

When you export to PDF, the annotation parts only show on 
mouseover/clicking, and the rest normally, so your complete text gets 
broken into hidden/unhidden parts.

I'm trying to think about how I might make use this, perhaps in a 
presentation...interesting.
