[Inkscape-user] Anybody know how to add randomization to existing objects?

Howdy!

I've just discovered the stamp tool. One thing that is missing... randomization of the object's attributes. It would be nice if this tool allowed for randomization, kind of like the Tiled Clones tool. Until something like that comes to be, is this something that could be cooked up as a filter? Could a filter be created that randomly rotates each individual object in a selection within a given range of values? How about this... could a filter be created that sets the rotation of the individual objects in a selection based on the brightness of an image's pixel value underneath the object's centerpoint? Any thoughts on the subject?

Thanks,
