bulia-

Please feel free to remove the "remove transform" verb. It's not normally useful, and deleting the transform= attribute using the XML editor is almost as easy.

HOWEVER, please do not take the "auto-flattening" transforms behavior any further -- particularly, don't apply group transformations to group members instead. That way lies madness and severe numerical problems (errors will accumulate rapidly over time).

Also bear in mind the expectations of users who use Inkscape to make trivial edits to existing (possibly hand-structured) SVG files.

I would prefer instead that transforms were _never_ flattened unless explicitly requested.

I will explain my reasoning further when I get home tonight.
