Text tool in sketch-- checking if it was used

Questions
1

In the past on slides where students need to sketch something, I have disabled buttons until after students have used the sketch tools using this code:
disabled: sketchStrokeCount(Sketch.sketch)=0 and
sketchPointCount(Sketch.sketch)=0

However, this does not work for checking to see if a student just used the new text tool. Does anyone have an idea of how I could also check to see if a student had written something with the text tool?

Related to this (sort of), is there a way to copy the text students have added onto a new sketch as there is with drawing?

background: sketchLayer(previousSketch.sketch) does not copy across the text layer.

I don’t believe any CL is available for the new tools. Jay did mention that it will be announced if or when they are available.
