What if the shape on the right is a closed path with no fill?

Let's assume you had the option, 'do not fill open curves' and you set it on.

1/ If you tried to fill the shape on the right and it didn't fill, you would know, wouldn't you.

2/ Say you had a bunch of shapes and you wanted to check them all. Select them all, apply a fill to all of them, then it would be a case of spot the odd one(s) out.

Try and guess which shape above is an open path ;)

Once established, a quick Ctrl Z puts it all back but you have your answer.

To be honest, it is not something I have ever needed, ever wanted or most probably, ever will need but if that sort of thing was important, I can see what the option could be used for. But then, I don't do much work with shapes mainly text and photos.

I would be greatly annoyed that I could not fill any open path if that is what I wanted to do, & had to open preferences to find & change something for the app to allow me to do that! >:(

It is important to be able to identify open curves but there are simpler & far less cumbersome ways that could be implemented to do that.
