Allow configuration of anti-aliasing for text objects

[Bug Importer]

As a long-time web-developer I stumbled upon Inkscape
and it looks very promosing to even create great
artistic website layouts (atm I just made kickass SVG
icons).

However I am missing a few small but rather important
features for it to catch on the serious web-dev/artist
userbase.

One of these is to have the ability to control the
level of anti-aliasing on text and especially to
disable it completly per-text(span/block?).

One example:

This is a very important feature in order to work on
website layouts:

- See non-antialiased text's alignment/flow in your
layout as it appears in a (Windows) browser
- Sometimes some text objects are required to have
antialiasing (Headlines in Images) and others not
- Designs using bitmap/pixel fonts are only possible
with antialiasing disabled (nobody needs blurred pixel
fonts)

Especially I can see some designers being hot to jump
on the Inkscape wagon having this feature which would
allow for some geeky stuff. ;)

I guess the following areas would have to be touched afaik:

- Text Tool Dialog
- Text Rendering
- Fileformat
- Image Export
- Printing

Checked out that website, it looks very sharp. Good work!

I absolutely agree to this! Please work on that.

Especially at small font sizes, text is losing contrast and readability is
decreasing when exported to PNG (due to agressive smoothing). It would be
nice to have the ability to tweak the AA settings (e.g. none, crisp, sharp,
smooth, you get the idea). - chromecat

this is a must for web design, would be greatly appreciated
