Bug Description

When editing a recently imported SVG (coverted EPS by GSVivew using PStoEdit), I found that there was a missing font when selecting one of the text items.

The approach used previously is to click the warning-triangle next to the missing font name in the toolbar, this selects various objects.

However, then selecting a different font, did not change the font used on the selected items, unless what was selected was DIRECTLY a text object.

The output from PStoEdit decided for it's own reasons to put the font-family and font-style formatting, on each character individually, rather than on the actual text elements ( embedded therein).

I am reporting this is a BUG, because Inkscape doesn't apparently change the font-family selected unless it's directly on a text element.
