LOL well if Inkscape can press the button it'll be fun, but then this may be easy to do and we can press our own buttons ;)
Now the problem would be explaining what I'm talking about. I could show someone in about 1 minute, to tell someone would be an essay <grin>
Thanks, I'll have a look at the links you supplied and see if they are what I'm after. may work out easier then I think (prolly not the first time round mind you LOL)

I know 0.47 is only just creeping out but where can we make suggestions for future/upgrades inkscape releases?
Here, or InkscapeForum.com, or create a RFE or blueprint as detailed as possible (maybe with mockups) and add it to the bug tracker?
I'm asking as I have a digital die cut machine (a blackcut cougar) and we use Inkscape as our design software (we cut via signcut) and to fill a shape with vector paths that the blade will follow (we replace the blade with a engraving/embossing tool) at the press of a button would be great.
You can create your own (vector-based) patterns with Inkscape 0.46 already... ( ...and store them in your custom templates):
