tested with Inkscape 0.46+devel r22086 on OS X 10.5.8, new preferences.xml
1) preferences set to 'This tool's own style'
- if unchanged no longer reverts to fill unset and stroke black 1 on font/size change
- if 'take from selection' is used (e.g. from text with fill color red, no stroke), adds stroke black 1 anyway to tool's style
- always resets font family to 'Sans', font size to 12
2) preference set to 'Last used style'
- works as expected except:
- inconsistency when changing font/size in tool controls bar: before entering text i.e.
- select text tool, change font/size
- write text, click on empty space on canvas, change font/size
a) change font name : ignored
b) change font size: shows immediately with current (i.e new) text object
