Now that the Eraser tool is in SVN for quite some time, what do people
think of it? Is it useful? In what mode do you use it, if at all?
Disclaimer: as you may remember I was against this tool from the
beginning, considering it redundant. Its Delete mode is equivalent to
Alt+drag followed by Del in Selector, and its Cut mode is now
equivalent to Alt+drag in Calligraphic pen which I just added:
* When drawing with <b>Alt</b>, Inkscape <b>subtracts</b> the path
you
have created from the selected path (with <b>Shift</b>, it adds to the
selected path). This allows you to quickly patch or fix problems in a
stroke you have drawn without leaving the tool.
So, do we really have to spend the prime toolbar space on a tool which
does what other tools already do?
