For the next Inkscape About Screen Contest, Tim created a collection of possible changes that came up during or before the contest in Vectors meetings. We still need to set a date for when to figure out which of them and how to implement those, more discussion topics are welcome, too: https://gitlab.com/inkscape/vectors/general/-/issues/243
