[Inkscape-user] problem / losing indent text lines Inkscape SVG

After working with Inkscape SVGs for a while, I've discovered another problem... this concerns the difference between (there shouldnt be one, that is) an original SVG with multiple text lines, and the saved version of this.

I have an SVG with three lines of text, all produced with the text tool...

.....This is line one / indented This is line two This is line three

...but... when I save this SVG, the first line loses the indented spaces

LINE One now here This is line two This is line three

I am thinking this has to do with all three lines being one object... in other words, Inkscape is just aligning all text to the left extreme, even though this isnt where I placed it.

Anybody know how to fix this ? Is it a bug... a setting I havent used... or just normal behavior for multiple lines of text ?

thanks
