Bug Description
It would be interesting and very useful if Inkscape could
create "real" basic shapes like <circle> <ellipse>, etc.
as described on the W3c page : http://
SVG/shapes.html
As far as I know Inkscape only produces <path> to
create these basic shapes.
The only way to create <circle> etc. is using the xml
editor included in Inkscape.

What would be the benefit of using "real" shapes? One
disadvntage is that you can't put text on path for an ellipse.
Inkscape used to have those but changed to the current
solution (don't remember the exact reason)
