[Gimp-developer] Font type on start/end of text

[Mario Sottile - Marionetas Mey <mariomey gmail com>]

When you go to the start or end of a text that it is formatted with 
non-default color, size and font, these changes are not respected. So, 
if I have a small red text, when I start writing at the beginning of 
that text, new entered text appears with default type, size, font, etc 
(e.g. black, medium, Sans). The same if I write at end of that text

For some jobs that I do with GIMP, this behavior is very annoying. I 
have to select all text from second character, overwrite it and, after 
that, go to first character and delete it. Weird workaround.

Is this what it is supposed to be? I think that "default formating" is 
for new text, not already formatted on.
