I always felt that svg, with multiple pages would be great as a replacement for other multi page layout formats (more secure than pdf, more easily manipulatable than doc), but I'm sure there are many implementation details of both of those formats that I am neglecting that are irreplaceable to the academic and business applications that may have special uses for them.
Inkscape's broader purpose is as a drawing program, so mixing both drawing and text document editing into a single application would muddle the interface and functionality.
That would be docBook, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DocBook, an XML way of laying out documents. I don't think Inkscape should do this too.
