Aaaahhh right! In this case I would put it at 2nd place. (mainly because I
know many people are waiting for the text tool).

For the text tool, we&#39;d really need to first investigate what artists need out of \
it and then find a way to get the resources to implement it properly. I doubt that \
the artistic text tool will give us a proper base to work from (and the same for the \
multiline text tool, which is really geared towards producing text in \
paragraphs.)<br>
