Hello there.
A friend of mine was checking out Inkscape (hadn't checked since 0.37 -- he said it's great!), and he told me something interesting: Some dialogs appear on top of everything else, but some don't. The Fill&Stroke and the Text&Font dialogs stay on top when clicking the document window, but the SPRect properties (for instance) does not. I found out there is a new window in my window manager called "SPRect attributes" (or "SPRect atributos", which is not correct in Spanish), which might explain the dis/appearance.
Later on, there is this "Append filename extension automatically" (which is great) (I never understood why some apps wouldn't do it by themselves), but the thing is that if the filename has already the .svg extension, it will add another .svg to the name. I've looked in some other GNOME applications and they don't seem to behave like this. Screenshot-13 shows this: http://cortijodelrio.net/~ddiaz/directo/inks/Screenshot-13.png (Look also what happens when you have a very long filename; GTK issue, I guess.)
The last thing is about international scripts. When trying to write Arabic I found out it wouldn't show it properly: text was written from left to right and with no glyphs ligature at all. The Text&Font (where you type in) shows it alright, but this is later changed. Is this going to be fixed with the Pango-ization? Looking forward to it. http://cortijodelrio.net/~ddiaz/directo/inks/Screenshot-14.png
Just reporting.
