Did you consider using Calc? It is easy to manipulate the
size of the cells. Then, select the area you want, copy,
and paste it into Writer if you need to.

What's about frames in a frame in a frame etc ... ?

Never thought of frames in frames, so I tried it, but it seems like
the new
frame isn't any different because I was within another frame when it was
created. The frames are independent of each other, so when I move one of
them, the other one is not moved.
It will do as a workaround though.
I still think that if I could set columns in a paragraph style, it would
have been sooooo convenient and it would have made some things so easy
to do
without a desktop publishing application. I can't even see that such an
enhancement would be very hard to implement, but then again, I am not a
developer...
Before looking for Scribus, I will see if this is possible to achieve
with
OpenOffice.org Draw, but maybe it's not.
Thanks for hints.
