What about using a graph plotting program?  I just tried gnuplot and
it seems to be able to generates SVG output these days.  Some of the
demo's at:

   http://gnuplot.sourceforge.net/demo/surface1.html

look similar to what you could want to do.  I just tried using the
following script:

  set terminal svg
  set output "surface.svg"
  set samples 51, 51
  set isosamples 21, 21
  set yrange [ -1.00000 : 1.00000 ] noreverse nowriteback
  set zrange [ -1.00000 : 1.00000 ] noreverse nowriteback
  splot [x=-3:3] [y=-3:3] sin(x) * cos(y)

and it seemed to produce something that inkscape could read, with the
surface as a seperate path that could be copied into another document.
Chosing a good function and viewpoint would be "fun" with gnuplot,
but it could work.
