Hi all:
I just commit a branch [1] that convert shapes and optinaly clones to paths previously any of this path operations:
Booleans, Stroke to paths, Object to paths, Combine and Break Apart.
The cuestion is simple:
¿Whats is your prefered option about symbols? This is done in preference section and can be change by the user, but we are speaking about the default behabiour.
A: Convert to path clones and apply the operation B: Retain clones in this operatios ignoring the operation
Thank for take time to reply.
Hi Jabier,
I'm in favor of converting to path by default. Personally if I decide to apply a path operation to a clone I don't see why it should fail on me and appreciate the automatic unlinking.
In general I assume clones are not a well known concept to start with and users will probably be confused if path operations work on some objects but not others and therefore will find it helpful if a clone is unlinked automatically.
- I can confirm this is a frequently presented problem on the forums. I have a small concern that this will cause people to wonder why their clones no longer change with the original, but I suspect they will figure the reason out more easily than the other way around.

I doubt the loss of the clone will cause sorrow in typical usage scenarios.
Thanks for this change, Eduard
