Actually, I think this is a horrible "feature" that ought to be fixed...or at least another bucket ought to be added that really does completely fill the area. Shrink/Grow does not really fix the problem, as it does not grow the fill to the precise mathematical boundaries.
If Inkscape's proprietary competition fills up to the "perceptual edges", that is awful too.
