- On the node deletion discussion, I found the current behavior
satisfactory: if you Del, you get curved approximation; if you Ctrl+del you get linear segment from linears. I think this is logical (unless I miss something).
Well, it may be defined "logical" but with reference to which "logic"? Now if you del a node aligned with its neighbours you get a "straight curve" also if it wouldn't be strictly (i.e. mathematically, or geometrically if you prefer: theese are other examples of "logic" that could be applied but I could mention graphic, aesthetic, practicity, ergonomics, ...) needed. That is, when deleting a node its sides are _always_ converted to curves. Probably Inkscape doesn't like segments at all... ;) In my head, if I set a node as cusp or as smooth, I expect this property to be preserved while I manipulate my path unless I explicitly change it, or I make an operation that indirectly, and with no ambiguity, requires the change to be aplied. Anyway, should I assume this as a stop point or is there space for further discussion? If this is really the last word, I will simply stick to 0.47: having to press ctrl-del every time in my daily work is too penalizing for me.
