I would suspect that in Inkscape, "runmode" would be something that could be temporarily enabled, while that would be the default mode in Inkview.
Most likely runmode would need to create a copy of the document and run from/display that instead of the original working copy.
Otherwise it's too inconvenient if the script (by design or accident) heavily modifies the SVG file.
(this is what's done in the Flash editor with Flash and ActionScript [which is really just an ECMAScript dialect now])
