This would be a great fix, the pt. measurement is to text as x/y coordinates is to svg.

Using px as a unit of measure for text just throws text into the wind when it comes to "print media". Once a user runs head first into this problem, there is no readily available information on how to convert the px units to pt.

Hope this makes it into 0.49

Thank you for 0.48, the Inkscape developer team is awesome!!
