I can't find the email where I said I would commit my "Show Page Shadow" option to the "Document Preferences" dialog. Anyhow, I added and tested it (I'm trying to make good on my backlog of promises). Now anyone may quickly set whether page shadow is on or off per-document via the "Document Preferences" dialog.
If you would like to make it permanent, you can change your local preferences.xml under namedview by adding the attribute:
showpageshadow="false"
However, if you have the default.svg located by default at /usr/local/share/templates/default.svg on *nix, then you must add the aforementioned setting in namedview. Took me moment to track down where that conflict between preferences.xml and default.svg occurred.
I think Jimmac and some others requested this and I don't like the cheesy "this is a document" page shadow either. Plus, it won't really be applicable when the documents are for animations, etc.

PS: Should I have made that atrribute "inkscape:showpageshadow" ??? I can change quickly if necessary.

Do NOT modify the namedview in preferences.xml. This is a per-document preference and therefore it must go into the template. Open, change, and resave your default.svg if you want this to be permanent for new documents.

Yes because we share the namedview element with Sodipodi and thus must avoid name conflicts.
Please also update the Release Notes on wiki.
