In short, CMYK colors shouldn't be converted to RGB ones, only for screen preview.
Correct.
But by default SVG only supports RGB colors. And Inkscape takes your CMYK input and converts it to RGB for actually using it in the SVG.
We can setup custom color sources, including CMYK and just have fallback values for normal display, but as Mental's pointed out, that will take some amount of work to implement.
Some of it is on the roadmap for version 0.53. Of course, the other item set for 0.53 has already been mainly done. So things are in a bit of flux if needed.
This is probably covered by RFE 1008409 "CMYK and Spot Colors"
