It could be useful a collaboration between Passpartout (a GTK DTP projects like scribus) and Inkscape in particular for this todo point: * Simple graphics directly in passepartout, probably as a subset of SVG, as well as being able to import SVG graphics.

Completely and wholly agree with you on this. We already have an active relationship with Scribus, but would like to develop relationships with other DTP projects. We've even discussed developing a freedtp type organization to represent the interests and collective formats our projects represent.
I encourage you to hop onto our chat channel. You can learn more here about that: http://inkscape.org/discussion.php
We should get a bunch of topics to discuss and organize a time when a quorum of each dev. team can meet online to plow into this topic together.
Any more thoughts?

I don't think we're actively disinterested ... I'm suddenly finding that I have way to much to do, and there is a lot of things I would like to do inside Passepartout itself, so I probably won't look much into any metaprojects -- or even at Gnome integration in Passepartout -- for a while.
Btw, the things you might look for in Passepartout for me hopefully within a reasonable frame of time is:
Using font-familys properly (i.e. being able to inherit the font-family and specify just a weight or style).
Making the xml2ps input markup more similar to XSL-FO, or even a proper subset.
PDF support in passepartout.
Simple graphics directly in passepartout, probably as a subset of SVG, as well as being able to import SVG graphics.
