I just keep the properties window open and use the scroll wheel on the
mouse for X and Y position and for scaling.

I can understand that people might find it easier the way you describe
it, but Scribus already have tools for "interactive cropping".

I almost never use "fit image to frame" or "fit frame to image". The
latter is used only in cases where I have "prepared" the image in
advance to the correct size and resolution.
