Comment 18 for bug 171842

New version of the patch.

The context menus call the embed and extract python extensions, with their default values. I'd modify it a bit so that the embed entry don't show the extension dialog and limit its scope to the selection.

After changing it many times, I've finally kept the file type in the title because if the Always embed and Always link options apply to all file types, Ask uses a different default value.

The extension dialog now shows a Don't ask again checkbox so that users access the preference value directly, without having to browse the Inkscape Preferences dialog. Known (minor) bug, the Prefs dialog is not updated (except if you restart inkscape) when the checkbox is used (under investigations).

I've tried to replace the extension description with tooltips, but the radiobutton widget doesn't implement (or it doesn't work) the feature. Works well with the checkbox.

The patch also fixes Bug #847374 "trunk no longer always embeds when pasting bitmap from clipboard".

As you can see, there are still things to improve, but nothing critical. Don't hesitate to test and comment!
