I frequently need to have several copies of the same object in different places my drawings, and selecting one of the two objects which are literally on top of each other is awkward, especially if the objects are small. I'd much prefer that "paste" creates a floating object, which follows mouse cursor, and you click to show where to put it. What do the usability experts say about such an idea?
According to the Tip and Tricks page:http://www.inkscape.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?TricksAndTips you can just move an object around and hit spacebar to drop a copy behind.
Is this what you want?
