Yes, but only partially. Major problems remain:

In the exported wmf, right aligned text appears as if it had been left aligned, and all lines but the first are further shifted right. Furthermore, line spacing other than 100% is set to 100%.
If I make the text left aligned, wmf export is close to correct, the only remaining problem is incorrect line spacing.

In the exported sk1 -> svg, newlines (cr or lf) are left out so that the text which originally was multiline now appears in one long line.
In the original svg, each line is enclosed in <tspan ... ></tspan>; in the exported files, lines are separated only by newlines, which are or are not honored by the importers.

If I (manually) remove all but one line from the text
AND the text is left-aligned, wmf and sk1 exports are correct.
Exports are still misaligned if the texts are other than left aligned in inkscape.

In emf export, text position is nearly correct BUT even for single line text objects, rotation of text characters is lost. All characters are in portrait orientation, even for text which originally was in landscape orientation.
