Summary0017086: Add context menu to the "Arrange Pages > Document Pages" Panel
DescriptionIt would be cool if you could delete, insert, move pages from a right-mouse-click context menu in the "Arrange Pages > Document Pages" panel. Right now if you want to do any of these actions the only place (AFAIK) is the global menu's "Page".

Scribus 1.5.9 svn has buttons. I'm not sure if a context menu would be the right solution here.

no idea if these things are already planned, but here three comments from my side:

- since the buttons are clearly in a page context, would it be possible to have the +, - import and co. be the most prominent part of the button?
  the current icons are really cute, but the main function a bit too hard to spot (the difference betwen +, <- and the cross arrow is really minimal at that size)
- if the most meaningful actions are not in the context menu, there should be no context menu at all (a button with drop down for the type of the preview?)
- for double page layouts, it should be as easy to delete a double a page as it is for a single page (two buttons? or if we keep the current popup, should default to delete two pages: if page three is selected, the default values in the dialog should be: 2 to 3)
  (if somebody tries to delete the first or the last page, a warning should probably shown...)

@nitramr thank you, I didn't know that the buttons were added in the next version - I'm looking forward when Arch updates its package then. All @ale 's comments seem sensible to me.
