Inkscape is an SVG editor. It's in the name. I for one love having a tool with semantics so close to the format, instead of dealing with Illustrator's nonsense. Sometimes Illustrator is the right tool, but as a web developer, Inkscape is the only sane tool for manipulating SVG.

The point is this a solved problem in every other paint program out there since Xerox, no one is asking for drawing SVG.

But it never gets sorted out due to whatever ideologic feeling Gimp developers have with offering only paths as option.

My post was irrelevant anyway, somehow I misread and thought you were replying to a post about Inkscape. Sorry about that!

No issues, I imagined just as much.
