I dunno about Gimp, but Inkscape extensions are pretty easy. This one however is a bit cumbersome because Inkscape does not pass to the extensions the bboxes of the selected objects. (I proposed to add this to the extensions API; Ted, is there any reason why you don't want to do this?)
There is no reason that it hasn't been done other than time. I guess that, and deciding a format for it, but I think we've discussed that too (I'd have to go through my mail). This should be a pretty easy task for someone who wants to do it. There is already a loop going through all of the selected items, you'd just need to find the bounding boxes and add that to the parameter list.
Will it require any changes in the existing extensions?
I think it should be done before 0.46 then, because it will make a lot of different extensions easier, and the API changes should be done as early as possible.
