Hello! I've been using inkscape for about a year now, and I've really fallen in love with it. Now I use it for about two hours each day to do technical illustration. One thing still frustrates me to no end though: the snapping behavior. I know this is a hotbutton issue, so I've tried to document my request with pictures and comparisons to illustrator, which I think gets this behavior right (from a technical illustration perspective).

I try and outline some of the things that could stand improvement. I would love to hack on this myself but I think it would take forever for me to grok the text-handling code. Does inkscape have any sort of feature/bug bounty program? I'll gladly chip in some cash or free beer :)
Thanks again for making such a great product, I really hope we can reach agreement on how to snap...
Thanks again, ...Eric
