Bug Description

Hi Friends,
I just came across an unexpected behavior of the Perspective/Envelope LPE, which is new for 0.92. I first reported on mailing list, where I was asked to make a bug report.

I created some text and converted to path.
Applied Perspective/Envelope LPE.
Stretched the text/paths using LPE handles.

Duplicated text/path twice (for shadow and backlighting effect) both blurred. At the time, I didn't notice that these duplicates also had the LPE.
Later, grouped all 3.

Duplicated the group, and moved aside, so I could try an edit, but still have the original effect I had created, in case I didn't like the edit. Then I ungrouped one of them, to make easier to select the top text/path object. When I dragged the LPE handles, I saw the object in the other group was being edited as if it were a clone.

No matter whether I edit the "parent" or the "clone" both objects are edited when one is edited.

"I see it :), is something like feature/bug and affect duplicating a
group with any LPE inside.

Could you fill a bug report please?

Cheers, Jabier."

Let me know if you'd like a file for testing, or anything else that might be helpful.

Thank you very much,
brynn
