As for the whole faux faces thing, first of all I'd rather see some proof that the quality of autogenerated "missing" faces is good enough. I know that Behdad means well, but I can't recall a single typeface that wouldn't need tweaking after applying weight/skew adjustment in FontForge.
It's too easy to gain a reputation of a toy application.
Also, try to think of it in terms of compatibility. What happens when you save an EPS or an SVG from Inkscape that uses an autogenerated typeface? Will Adobe Illustrator users be able to open it correctly?
