By the way, am I the only one for whom the text tool now crashes every time I try to start a new text box? (I can copy existing text boxes and change the content though)
inkscape: /usr/include/boost/optional/optional.hpp:641: boost::optional<T>::pointer_type boost::optional<T>::operator->() [with T = Geom::Rect, boost::optional<T>::pointer_type = Geom::Rect*]: Assertion `this->is_initialized()' failed.
(kind of annoying while making the mock-ups)
Failed reproduce it based on your description (creating new text objects with current trunk works without crash on OS X 10.5.8 (32bit) and 10.7.2 (64bit)), but can trigger a crash consistently when editing text based on the steps provided in bug #960980 [1]:
1) open 'Export bitmap…' and keep it open in the dock 2) create new (regular) text object 3) enter text on-canvas 4) use 'backspace' to delete all just entered text
-> crash when last remaining letter is deleted.
