Bulia,

would it be possible to include the ability to copy/paste between two Inkscape docs (open at the same time?  Perhaps it could be implemented as a new copy/paste menu item.

This would allow us to maintain custom style template files that are used to store styles for use in any Inkscape document.

Just create several objects with styles you want to reuse, place them
on canvas near your drawing, and use Ctrl+C/Ctrl+Shift+V to copy/paste
style from them to objects in your drawing.

There was some discussion about this recently. Basically we just need
a universal list/table/palette widget that would be used for all
markers, gradients, patterns, and just any reusable stuff that the
user may want to store or share.
