Thank you, all of you, for putting in quality time, thought, and discussion on The Manual. I've been using an ad hoc terminology for some of Inkscape's functions in my tutorial and would like to bring my language into accordance with what you are designing. I invite you to use anything in the tutorial that might add to or complement your work. The tutorial is at:
