I'd like to see some of these things implemented as well. In fact, I'd be willing to pay money for them.

For me priorities would be:

1. GUI for kerning (letter spacing, if you prefer) and baseline shifts; make sure these (and line spacing!) are in the text toolbar.
2. Paragraph spacing separate from tracking
3. Eydropper copies font formatting (see <a href="https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/170256">bug #170256</a>)
4. Indents and bullets
5. A way to convert an inline text box to block form (this might be possible, I just can't find out how to do it)

I use inkscape primarily for website mock-ups so it would be really helpful if it could do at least what I can do in HTML or mimic it in some way (e.g. you don't have paragraph spacing in HTML but you add margins to accomplish the same thing).

I would put in $50 for these changes - anyone else want to contribute? What would it take to get this done?
