If you select an interace-object and then switch to "code-view", the corresponding object in the code is automatically selected or highlighted. If Inskcape could do a similar trick, to allow for all the weird things user could posibly want to alter... Not that exact node positioning is so weird, ofcourse...
I think it would be really cool for highlighting to descend into the "d" attribute in the xml editor. I hope someone takes you up on that idea and implements it. One problem that users will have even after this is implemented is that path data can only be represented in one unit, so there will almost always be math necessary to make exact values in the path corespond to the exact position on the screen that is desired. I would also like to see x,y spinboxes on the node toolbar. I think Johan has implemented a point input widget in his live effects branch. Perhaps we could use it for this purpose when he merges back in. Though there is still at least one issue to be resolved: handles cannot take focus.
