I think that looks great. :)
With the gtmm'ification coming up here for 0.41, hopefully this can get done. I think that looks much cleaner, too.
After some off-list comments by Alan I have redone the mockup a bit. I got rid of the tabs and did a tree-view for the subsections, I have also paid some attention to the Gnome HIG to get the spacing right and got rid of the frames around the items. Here is the mockup: http://ramnet.se/~nisse/diverse/temp/inkscape_new_prefs_mockup2.png (Hopefully my webserver wont go down this time)

What approach did you use to create this mockup?
I gave a shot at trying to mock up something with glade, but with disappointing results. However this definitely looks doable.
In fact... There are a few dialogs we've identified recently as needing a "tree view on left, various widgets on right, help/close buttons on bottom" style of layout, so I'm thinking it would be worthwhile to create an abstract 'TreeEditor' class for creating dialogs like this (along with the XML editor, extensions editor, layer editor, and maybe more).
