Extensions > Modify Path > Color Markers... will fix arrow color

This is a workaround that had to be introduced due to a limitation in SVG standard.

The line ending is indeed quite limited, I noticed recently that changing the stroke colour does not change the ending colour, which is disappointing. I did however find a workaround, if you want to edit the arrows created by the line ending you could try converting the line to a path and then edit the arrows as a path, thus customizing them in any way you like.

I hope it helps.
