Bug Description
Inkscape 0.48.4 r9939
Windows 7 x64
Steps to reproduce:
1. Create an item with just a stroke. (or load the attachment)
2. Look at the "style" info for the item you have created (in a text editor):
style="
3. Path > Stroke to Path
4. Save
5. Now reload the file in a trusty text editor and notice that after you have done the "Stroke to Path" command, Inkscape has added font info to your file, causing the file to become bloated with un-needed info.
style="
What should happen:
Inkscape should either keep the same style info as before (except for the needed flip of the color from stroke to fill) the "Stroke to Path" command was used, or just use the minimal style info possible to keep the file size down (just the fill info).
Now, I can understand having the font info being kept intact if the item was a font to begin with, but not adding it to a quickly drawn item that you wanted to convert from a single line to a filled item via the "Stroke to Path" command.
