AW: Well, i can just say that it works as designed at the moment. Combine is
nothing else than adding all (Poly)Polygons to a single PolyPolygon object. This
is done with closed polygons. When You do it with lines, the lines are converted
to closed polygons, too (check with F8 point mode to see). Also, the text is
converted to curves.
The function is available if all of the selected objects are convertable to
polygons. There is no special handling for text.
The function is primarily for combining closed filled areas, e.g a ellipse
combined with text will just leave the text empty since it's a PolyPolygon now
with XOR fill rule. I think it makes not much sense to change that, it may be
wanted. There is no way to 'guess' what is wanted.
Maybe You were more intending to get the lines connected to a single polygon
again, then You should use 'Connect', not combine.
