how difficult would it be to add a feature in inkscape where you can select multiple elements, and then type in a 'name template', and have that applied to all objects?

Just renaming is trivial, what is more difficult is updating all references that reference this element. But this is all doable in an extension, I think.

another thing that would be handy is 're-order group', where a group is selected, and you can re-order the name of the elements ("id=" tag) automatically..

I'm not sure how reordering is related to names. Can you give an example?
