tutorial-tips.svg: Hidden features and the XML editor

"The XML editor allows you to change almost all aspects of the document without using an external text editor. Also, Inkscape usually supports more SVG features than are accessible from the GUI. For example, we now support displaying masks and clipping paths, even though there's no GUI for creating or modifying them. The XML editor is one way to get access to these features (if you know SVG). "

Release Notes 0.44: Clipping and masking

"Inkscape now provides some UI for using clipping paths and masks. […]"

Release Notes 0.47: Node tool

"The Node tool can now edit clipping paths and masks of objects on canvas, without releasing them. If the selected object has a clipping path and mask, the corresponding buttons on the controls bar of the tool will be enabled; pressing these buttons will display the editable paths or handles of the clippath or mask. A clipping path is stroked green, a mask is stroked blue (the same colors as those used for them in Outline mode). "
