So many software projects are struggling these days to squeeze their
interfaces into usable netbook/tablet formats; mostly by degrading
usability for those who use *real* computers and *adequate*
screen-estate.

I sincerely hope Scribus won't go that route - after all it is a
layout/typesetting software.

That said, I remember the 'Workspaces' concept in many design
software some time ago. At least CorelDraw and I think Quark came
with several view profiles, configurable to death; one could also
save different ones for different tasks/situations; why not one
profile/workspace for multiscreen use, another for small displays,
one for design and another for reviewing, etc...???

This of course means an extra layer for the UI, depending a lot on
OS and toolkit in use, maybe difficult to implement.

Just thoughts,
