I have added a bug report https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/534045

the 'object to path' and 'stroke to path' buttons have gone AWOL.

There were after the 'make selected segments curves' button but aren't there now.  I went looking in node preferences to see if I could turn them on again, but there is no option to do so.

I reckon these are pretty fundamental node options... as you can't use the node tool on shapes until you've made the conversion. Yes, there are keyboard shortcuts, and they are also the first items in the path menu - but a quick icon click beats both those methods for me.

Can we please have them back?  And if not, a rationale for why they've been removed, and a configurable option to turn them on again?

thanks!

There were too many buttons on the node toolbar. This makes it hard to use on small screens or when working in a non-maximized window. I had to remove some of them, so I chose the ones that were already available in the Path menu. I think those two buttons should not be there.
