Indeed - maybe everyone agrees it could be hidden if the user sets the
user editor on the
tool options (to type the text in a pop-window)?

The unstable version has an experimental feature to move all on-canvas
widgets to the top right corner of the image window. Not for the text
one yet, afaik, though.

In my experience (and I use the text tool a lot) the on-canvas widget
doesn't interfere with my work, but I can see how someone would have
problems with smaller images. So there are a few options to consider,
and, imo, this is where we need input from Peter.

P.S. Sorry about the blank email.
