Thanks ~suv.
Hhmm....I didn't realize there was even an option for that. I see that "Deleting nodes preserves shapes" is unchecked, although clearly I don't recall changing it (since I didn't even know there was an option).
Some questions:
Is it supposed to be checked by default? Why doesn't unchecking it reverse the behavior? (Delete doesn't preserve the shape, but it doesn't leave a straight segment, like Ctrl + Delete with box checked.)
I suppose I might have unchecked it, thinking it would reverse the behavior, and then forgot that I did it. But it doesn't seem to reverse the behavior completely.
Thanks again :-) brynn

Please check the preferences for the Node tool (the option at the bottom of the node tool preferences pane, see tooltip for a verbose explanation what it does) - likely you have swapped the default behavior.
