Bulia,
would it be possible to include the ability to copy/paste between two Inkscape docs (open at the same time? Perhaps it could be implemented as a new copy/paste menu item.
This would allow us to maintain custom style template files that are used to store styles for use in any Inkscape document.

Then another style that is 1 pt, and has an arrow end marker and a solid stroke pattern etc.
Just create several objects with styles you want to reuse, place them on canvas near your drawing, and use Ctrl+C/Ctrl+Shift+V to copy/paste style from them to objects in your drawing.
*Something like an image palette. How can I draw little images (you can see the kind that I mean in between step 5 and 6 on the attached doc) and have them easily accessible, so I don't have to go through old documents and copy and paste, each time I re-use them (which is often).
There was some discussion about this recently. Basically we just need a universal list/table/palette widget that would be used for all markers, gradients, patterns, and just any reusable stuff that the user may want to store or share.
You can copy/paste between documents now. The trick is to use the same Inkscape instance to open both. Open one document, then, from the menu choose File->Open and open the second one. I can copy paste without problems that way on Win2k. Hope it helps.

Is that really considered an acceptable fix? I know of no other application in Linux, Windows or Mac OS that has this problem.

I promise that if I knew a lick of programming I would dedicate my life to fixing that. :)
