I already had my threads set to 8 (in case that matters).  They had 
originally been on Average for both (Gaussian and filter display).  And that 
has always been adequate for me.  I switched both to Best and restarted 
Inkscape.  No significant change  :-(  A tiny improvement, but not nearly as 
good as the display in 0.91.
If there is a better way to show this, let me know, and I'll make up some 
more helpful screenshots.  Or any other kind of documentation.
- If you do have both versions installed, I'd assume that these could be
useful:
 - an svg file with the filter
 - two screenshots, one from 0.91 and one from 0.92pre2, both at same
zoom level
 - maybe a png export of same area
But this is for the devs now ;-)

    The first one is what I see in Inkscape.  First, notice in the

smaller object where the filter looks a little better than on the larger
one.  (I mean the lavendar colored strokes with Raised Border filter). 
But
mainly I'm curious about the difference between the Inkscape canvas and 
the
Windows Viewer.  See in the 2nd one, the filters are displayed in a much
nicer way, at least imo.
        So I know that different viewers have different abilities and
support different features.  But it seems to me like Inkscape should be
having the most ideal display.  What can the reason for this be?  I have 
not
noticed this much of a difference in previous versions.
        Ooohh -- I just learned from a previous question about the dpi 
being
different in 0.92.  Could that explain this different display?  Is there
some other place besides Export PNG, where I need to change the dpi?
Something in Inkscape Prefs maybe?

What are your settings for the filter render quality in Inkscape? See

Edit -> Preferences -> Render -> Effect Quality ?
There's always a trade-off between being able to work fast, and being
able to have an optimal preview. Good render quality slows Inkscape down.
(I don't know what the default value is, but it's probably not 'best').
