Hi,
congratulations for all the improvements in 2.10! I've been long waiting
for them. I hope plugins will soon be available for this version too.

I would like to suggest an improvement in usability.

*Vertical text alignment*:
When inserting a new text, the cursor center aka the point you click
corresponds to the *upper left corner* in the text box. This means you
can't know *where the bottom line of the text will be*, because it depends
from the font size. And the cursor gives *no info* about the bottom line.
I don't think I'm wrong when I say that when you insert a text, in most
cases you first care about where the bottom line is, not the upper one.
The current setting means that, *for every text layer I create*, I have to
move it to the correct position in a second moment. It would be much better
if the cursor told me *where the bottom line will be*, or at least if I
could choose for it to behave like this.
Another issue with the upper left point comes when I *resize the text*. By
reducing the size, the text *goes up*; by increasing the size, the text *goes
down*. As a result, I always have to *move it back* to the correct
alignment.

Thank you,
Gregorio
