Nice! There are lots of requests for better TeX-related features in the bug tracker. You may want to troll through there to generate some ideas, and to see what sort of features other users are looking for. Citing user requests could also strengthen your application a lot...
For starters: https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/170802 PS + LaTeX export https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/171141 Richer text layout features https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/172195 Export LaTeX with PGF/TikZ macros

I'm interested in creating a TeX exporter which uses PGF/Tikz instead of PSTricks, as PSTricks does not work well with pdflatex. Looking at the PSTricks code, it doesn't seem like this would be too terribly difficult to implement.
This could be good because it should fit within our recommendation that GSoC project be implemented outside of the Inkscape core as extensions to facilitate refactoring work. Have you taken a look at other output extensions in the Inkscape cope?
Another idea that I had was to streamline the gradient editor so that it's easier to use. For the most part, Inkscape has a fantastic GUI, but the current gradient editor is very cumbersome to use. Here's a quick and ugly mock-up for a more intuitive version: www.annoware.com/temp/gradmockup.png http://www.annoware.com/temp/gradmockup.png
Can you describe in detail the changes you would like to make to improve the gradient editor?
