The padding in text boxes prevents true-alignment to the text. There is always an indentation and it forces me to to custom align every object to the edge of the letter instead of the text box.

@Evan Iacone - There is a known issue/UX inconsistency to be fixed at a later date where, if you select the Text tool and click-and-drag (even just a pixel) before typing, there will be padding. 

However, if you click without moving and start type, then no padding.

To get rid of padding, switch the object type to shape and back to text.

And here it is in action (NOTE: I am pressing the T hotkey shortcut to get into Text mode):

 

HUZZAH! THANKS ROBERT!
