I've actually never used Flash; just commenting on what I perceived as the terminology used throughout Inkscape.
With that said, call it whatever you'd like :) . I'm just happy the feature's in there as it's already making editing much better for me.
Now, any chance of an easier way to enter/select an exact width for a node?
Regards, Aaron

In svg terminology the stroke is always the line drawn round the perimeter of the shape, not an independent line (have you used flash a lot maybe?) An svg shape has both a fill (interior) and stroke (perimeter)

Haha, sorry, yeah that's what I meant, a shape with a variable-width (complex) edge.
I definitely agree with the feature, in any case. :)
The reason I was confused was because for me, a "stroke" is usually an independent line, not necessarily the outer area of a shape. So, reading "filled stroke" made me think the stroke itself was colored, like "a stroke of painting."
Maybe "Variable Stroke" (for powerstroke) and "Variable Boundary" (for filled powerstroke) could be used.
Replacing Variable with Complex could work too, but users may expect the complexity to apply to more than just the width (for example, combination of different line styles).
