Bug Description
Filters and patterns can be set manually for text selections (tspan elements) via XML editor, but not via GUI (as far as I could find). It would be fun if those were supported, when text is selected.
As jazzynico points out here: https:/
Changing the opacity value of a single letter first does nothing, and after leaving the dialog, the complete text becomes less opaque.
Rendering of those properties works, it's only not possible to add them (as far as I could find out).
Tested in Inkscape 0.92.2 on Linux Mint 18.2

Earlier report related to difficulties to style a selected tspan element, but describing the opposite symptom for object opacity:
* Bug #1480591 “Reduced opacity on tspan ignored for rendering (rev >= 10326)”
AFAICT fill opacity on the other hand (as well as stroke opacity) can still be applied to a highlighted portion of a text via GUI (Fill and Stroke dialog) just fine (a tspan element is created if not already present for the highlighted portion, and the modified properties are written to the style attribute of the relevant tspan).
This request possibly should be focused on support for paint servers on tspan elements (adding and editing via GUI, rendering)?
