Oh wow! Those would be awesome features for Inkscape, and not just for fonts!
I do a lot of symmetrical drawing, so being able to select node handles, and move them all together would be really, really nice. As it is now, the only way to make node handles symmetrical is to use snapping to a grid (or possibly guides).
A long time ago, when I first started using Inkscape, I was playing with node sculpting (Alt + drag multiple nodes) and I had asked (probably in InkscapeForum.com) if it would be possible to sculpt node handles. Of course it isn't. But with this type of feature, it might become possible!
All best, brynn

Because I work a lot on fonts, cutting and pasting a lot between Inkscape and FontForge I see many features already present in FF which could be very nice in Inkscape. For example the ability to select handles separately from the node.
But here are very sweet new Robofont features which could benefit not only to type drawers :
On the other hand FF visualisation of potential extremas and inflexion point on a curve are extremely useful too.
