Version 0.91.0+47~ubuntu14.04.1 fixes the problem (#10) for me now. The space+mousemove panning ends as I release the space bar.

I tested it on Linux Mint 17.0 and Linux Mint 17.1 both Cinnamon; It keeps working after several reboots/restarts or with multiple instances.

(On the Mint 17.1 system on which I had the problem (#10) - I compiled Inkscape tonight, so I had to install all required dev-dependencies. It could be possible that those have contributed to the fix somehow? Although the 17.0 system didn't had them installed.)

Currently there is still one (unusual) way to reproduce the problem:

- Press and hold the space bar
- Open Inkscape (by clicking on a startmenu/panel icon)
- Inkscape starts up in the inescapable panning mode
