Bug Description
This took me some time to figure out what the problem was.
I have been trying to run the Perspective plugin on some paths; and inkscape seemed to transform it only when the second digit was an odd number.
After some time I found that it depends on the _order of selection_! I'm sorry, but that's the worst thing I've ever seen in Inkscape. That's completely nonsense. Do you really expect users to figure this out by themselves, without any hint? For all path modifications it depends on the z-index which object will cut another, but no, for the perspective tool it has to be something very special, let's use the order of selection. WTF?

Bug #182832 in Inkscape: “extensions mix selection order”
<https:/
side-note: the manual page about the extension is incorrect about the selection order:
«To use the extension, select a quadrilateral first, then select the path to transform.» -> the reverse selection order is correct: first select the path to transform, then select the quadrilateral.
