However, even if the user doesn't notice the tutorials, Inkscape is still pretty straightforward to learn. We've got mentions of the tutorials in a variety of places, so I'm sure most dedicated users will eventually run across them. Also, even though in other apps Help is not helpful, I think us putting genuinely useful things in there will spur others to make sure good stuff is in their Help menus.

I would agree with all of that. I was able to learn the rudiments of Inkscape by playing with it, and once asking for help on this list. And with the tutorial experience, I'm going to start looking at help sections again.
