Just a couple observations: 1) The English words chosen for the various fields in the UI are not very amateur (non-professional/non-educated) friendly. 2) The ability to hang Inkscape unintentionally if an image is not small enough (with no related warning) is disconcerting.
Granted, I didn't use small art as one of the first searches turned up when using the terms "8-bit zelda" was at a much higher resolution... which seemed like a good reason to test it. It seems like it should operate with relatively similar speed, regardless of size, when you're just dealing with interpreting "blocks" (granted I know on a technical level it's pixels, but uneducated users may run across something like http://fc07.deviantart.net/fs70/i/2011/340/9/3/link_the_legend_of_zelda_8bit... say "well, it's pixel art" because they're just looking at the blockiness of it and doing those simple searches). Again, I understand the technical meaning of pixels and what the intended functionality is, but perhaps if an image above a certain resolution is detected as the selection, the dialog should show a warning about the amount of time it may take.
Very nice results otherwise from my limited testing. :)
Cheers, Josh

If you're happy with it, then merge it to trunk. The thing about trunk is 'with great power comes great responsibility' and thus if something goes wrong, you should have the time/intention to help fix it too.
Free software development is not something completely weird to me and I got the feeling that I should merge after I fixed the blocker issues and got no replies for some time. I just asked here in the list, because I thought it'd be disrespectful with all you guys. Thanks for the reply. I'm more confident now.
Code merged (with some updates regarding own Inkscape interfaces evolution).
