Bug Description

(Inkscape 0.48.1, Windows XP)

Steps to reproduce bug:
1) Type "12"
2) Select "12", click "subscript". "12" gets subscripted (correct)
3) Select "1", choose a different font. The "1" is shifted further down (wrong).

Same behaviour (with shifting up) for superscripting.

Reproduced with Inkscape 0.48+devel r10082 on OS X 10.5.8 (i386)

Can be worked around by clicking on the sub/super-script toggle again with the differently styled text part still highlight.

Unfortunately the proposed patch still needs to be fixed. Removing the milestone until we have an accepted patch.
