Not 100% sure what solution is referred to in this comment, but IIUC using 96dpi in a branch which hasn't switched to 96dpi internally yet triggers known bugs with units (e.g. mismatch of size reported in select and rectangle tool), since in 0.91.x the content would actually be scaled (if the viewBox size <-> svg width, height don't match the internal resolution of 90dpi). Thus default templates with viewBox sizes based on 96dpi would trigger documents with inconsistent sizes displayed in inkscape's GUI right from the beginning.
