I made a quick post on the GTK site (yet to be moderated) but I also checked on my Debian box here running Inkscape 0.44-0 and it works as I would like it to work so it is a windows issue.

Thanks,

Tony

It may be. I'm on Windows today so I only checked Inkscape here -
don't remember if it did so on Linux. I'm forwarding this to Tor who's
a maintainer of the Windows GTK port, maybe he can comment on that.
