Instead we're going to soon have another preference, similar but more general: whether the user wants to use geometric bbox (path only, no stroke) or visual bbox (with stroke). Correspondingly, the transform origin will _always_ be the edge of the chosen bbox, but the bbox itself may be different depending on user preference. This way those who prefer pure geometric bbox will have it in everything - in the visible frame, in snapping, and in transforms. Further, perhaps by this change we will also be able to eventually get rid of the "snap bboxes/snap nodes" choice in document prefs. Selector will always snap bbox (although this bbox may be either visual as now, or including only nodes). Node tool will, naturally, always snap only nodes. Less preferences overall and a saner, more predictable experience. What do you think?
That would be great! This surely makes everything much cleaner. I'll try to calculate to correct origin. If that works nicely, the origin preference can be removed. I'm not fully sure if this will solve the bug, but we'll soon discover that..
