  Impress moves objects on its own; can't lock them; throws work away!

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: openoffice.org-impress

  I am trying to make a presentation of photos.  I have several photo
  objects on each page.  Some of them are rotated at angles and
  partially off the slide.  And that's fine...except Impress randomly
  moves them back onto the middle of the slide on its own!  This throws
  away all the time I spent positioning them so they overlap just right!
  And it happens when I'm working on other slides!  I'll be working on a
  slide, and then I'll look over to the left at the slide list, and see
  that Impress has moved all my objects on all the other slides, all by
  itself!

  To top it off, it's impossible to lock objects in place!!!

  Has no one ever used Impress like this before?  Has it been tested at
  all?  How can this problem still be around in 2.4.1??  This is about
  to force me to switch to PowerPoint!
