Hello there!
Well, I was thinking that, what if a preview was available in "open file" dialogue? I know you are using a default gtk dialogue. But maybe you can tweak it to have a preview, ala GIMP 2.0?

Yeah, I think that would be cool. I think the way that we should do it is to use the freedesktop.org thumbnail stuff. So basically everytime we save we create the thumbnail. Then, on open, we use that same thumbnail (with a button to force creation). This way large SVG files don't take forever to render if you accidentally click on them, and they are already loaded when you save.
I currently have the export system in the operating room, once I'm finished with that, I don't think this will be too hard to implement.
