Comment 5 for bug 1201045

Yes, I apologise for the missing information (it's my first bug report ^^).

Platforms: Mac OS X v.10.7.5, Inkscape: 0.48.2 r9819
Platform: Ubuntu 13.04, Inkscape: 0.48.4 r9939

If I can add my personal opinion, it would be so terribly easy to just add a `Colour marker` section on the `Stroke paint` palette containing the two options `Stroke colour` and `Fill colour` which would point to the `stroke` and `fill` fields of all markers for a given path in the XML code. This is because if I am drawing arrows on a coloured background, say on top of another shape, I would like to give the impression that the markers are transparent and not "white". Or, alternatively, provide just a checkbox where someone could specify whether to copy the stroke info to the marker (which should be `on` by default) and an RGBA hexadecimal field for the `Marker fill` field. Actually, I like this second solution even more! ^^

Anyway, now that I have found out I can edit the XML by myself, my thesis is safe! :)
Thank you guys for this awesome piece of SW!
