Comment 4 for bug 175695

Yeah, I'm desperate for this. The program runs HORRIBLY on normal viewing mode, making it completely unsuitable for work and vastly increasing the chance of it randomly crashing (and typically in my case the program disappears entirely in said scenario).

Yet outline mode is equally useless - I can't see what fill color everything has without clicking on it.

I'd love a super low quality normal display, similar to how Xara does it.

I'd use Xara or Illustrator, but their pen tools just don't match up to Inkscape and make it a real pain to change shapes. It's horrid being stuck in the middle.
