[scribus] Keep with next paragraph

[Matt Miller]

I just now submitted another bug report for a related issue involving the "Do not split paragraph" feature, and I see quite a few other bug reports around the "Widows and orphans" settings.  So, I'd like to look around in the source code to see if I can help with any of this.

Where in the source code should I begin to look?  I'd appreciate any overview of the source tree or pointers to get me started.  I have been a programmer for many years.

Thanks.

I expect that this heading would be at the top of the second column.  On page 49 we see an example of this feature working properly, where the "CHAPTER 35" chapter heading appears at the top of the first column, but if we remove the paragraph style that heading jumps to the bottom of the last column on the previous page.
