AFAICT some of the backported changes from trunk for 0.48.4 seem to have modified a basic snap behavior in the select tool context of the stable release branch - i.e. introduced some of the newer snap behavior from the development version like dropping the distinction between 'what' snaps and snap targets: snapping cusp nodes to grid when dragging an object or a complex group for example now requires to activate 'Snap cusp nodes' too - this is indeed different from the prior stable version Inkscape 0.48.3.1.

Additionally, there seems to be no more 'Convex hull' snapping to grid (default snapping preferences) when dragging a complex group with e.g cusp node snapping and grid active.

Needs further investigation with regard to what is intentionally changed behavior, and what might be considered a regression in the context of the stable release branch - setting bug status to 'Confirmed' for now.
