You cam modify the element, also you also can modyfy or add other svg tags as in meassure line LPE and the not merged branch mirror_improvements (in dev)
My best advice is to think carefully about what the smallest possible usable feature is. And add that.
It might not be an LPE, it might need some extra support such as parsing and making sure inkscape doesn't throw away the animation tags, but once you have the smallest feature, you can build form there and get others interested in developing.
I can lend you a hand in the user interface (ui) department as well as some c++ code depending on what you need help with.
Best Regards, Martin Owens
Thanks for the suggestions guys. It seems from what you're suggesting, getting inkscape to even recognize the animation related tags is the place to start. Where would one need to begin to even get started on that? I did some riffling through the doxygen docs, and an educated guess as for where to start would be in the Inkscape::XML::SimpleNode class, since that seems where inkscape handles creating new XML nodes. Where does the SVG parsing for reading the file take place though?

Hopefully this is correct. I'm still getting acquainted with a new email client.
