Bug Description

1. Create new svg document
2. type some text - e.g "hello"
3. Save as eps file
4. Open file again
5. Start editing imported "hello area"

result - editing process would be buggy - the one who will try to do this would understand what I mean - e.g - pressing backspace key would remove symbol, but won't move the caret, typing new symbols would draw them at the beginning of the text area (directly under existing text) etc
