To everyone who uses snapping in Inkscape:
We plan to make _screen pixels_ (not px units) the default unit for snapping distance, so that e.g. snapping at 5 pixels remains the same distance on screen regardless of zoom.
The question is, do you still need absolute (not zoom-independent) units for specifying snap distance? If so why?
If there are no voices in defence of abs units, we will remove them altogether and use _only_ screen pixels. This will simplify the Doc Prefs dialog and will be generally saner and simpler.
