If I remember correctly there was available many LPE in dev Inkscape, but they disappeared somewhat. I especially pay attention on envelope, which was very helpful. I'm lack of it. I had to use GIMP to use perspective on shapes, save them to png and then trace them in Inkscape which was a little tricky. I hope guys you restore adequate LPE or some perspective tool for users. :)
In order to enable "experimental" LPEs in Inkscape from SVN please remove "#ifdef LPE_ENABLE_TEST_EFFECTS" line and following "#endif" in src/live_effects/effect.cpp file. I remember Johan mentioning that those LPEs were commented out because they are not ready yet and probably will not make it into 0.47, so use them at your own risk... Envelope LPE is too crashy to be usable, perspective path LPE has seen some interesting improvements recently; it's fun to play with, but it might be a bad idea to use it for serious work.
