Normal mode

I have extensive experience with MS Word, and I know very well you are
not attempting to reproduce its every single features (thank God).

It would be essential however to provide something like MSW Normal
mode. This simply means that the page limits are not shown, and that
the window space is used to show the page space within the page
margins.

If you want to actually WRITE texte inside AbiWord, you need this, as
the page mode is, well, not the normal mode, wasting most of the
screen space to no end when you are not doing page tweaking (that you
should never do anyway).

I would even say that page mode is not necessary. But normal mode is,
and should be the default operating mode in my view.
