I'd like to see this change too. Every other design program I've used
has had the origin at top left because that is how we read a page (top
to bottom). This isn't a mathematical graph we're wanting to draw here
(usually) :P

Title:
  Inverted ruler co-ordinate system

Status in Inkscape:
  Triaged
Status in inkscape package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  The y-axis of the rulers' co-ordinate system is
  inverted (increasing upwards), and places the origin on
  the bottom left of the viewport. The SVG spec places the
  default origin on the top left of the viewport, and has
  the co-ordinate system increasing to the right and
  downwards.
