SURE, the default behavior is normal to be ON for proportional scaling (I mean this is normal and expected behavior - width and height are easy to modify with their modifier points but to proportional scale is hard because the check box is OFF). I always forget that.
So I always do the wrong move first because I spare time between Corel Draw (which is a far better and logic behavioral model than Illustrator) and Inkscape. I introduce Inkscape to many coworkers and friends - and they start to work with Inkscape for some things (banner shapes for plotting process, artwork, logo vectorization, ..etc) they all said is a pleasure to work with Inkscape.
But they all do the same mistake like me - they forget about OFF state of scaling checkbox.
Also, for development versions - on right click on the colors bar - now we have a dialog [Set fill - Set stroke (fill)], again this is a bit strange -> if the normal (left) click is assigned to Set fill, is normal and expected to change Stroke fill at left click from one move not two. Actually we have 2 steps instead of only one.

In the transform dialog scale tab, the proportional check box is defaulted off. Everytime I use this I have to check it on since every graphic I make is scaled proportionally - would there be any agreement to change this to have it defaulted on ?
