Also there is another missing feature: POINT primitive import due to SVG limitation (there is no POINT at all inside SVG specification). dxf_import.py imports POINTS as two circular segments and they are totally indistinguishable from the other objects. Point is very usefull for "drilling" and e.t.c so a simple solution: import them as any object (red arrow in my version) with the "d" outline "M x,y ..." (x,y)=(pointX, pointY) and special SVG-attribute "dxfpoint":"1" to distinguish from the other objects. This behaviour turns on when new "checkmark" is enabled (dxf_import.inx)
It's better not to place in SVG namespace any attributes not defined in SVG standard. I propose to move them to Inkscape namespace, i.e. inkscape:dxfpoint="1" (unless someone can propose a better solution).
