It's completely possible to cut or copy the OCR text from the output window in gscan2pdf and then paste it into whatever text manipulation application you prefer. This works fine for smaller projects, although I agree that it's probably not the best choice for dealing with a whole book.
There's also the xsane2tess script, a wrapper for tesseract-ocr that can be used with xsane's scan to text feature. See: http://doc.ubuntu-fr.org/xsane2tess (in French, but try Google translation).
