I'm new to inkscape and have used CorelDRAW a bit. One feature I really like is the ability to snap to edges of paths (as well as midpoints and whatnot). Is there something like this in Inkscape?

Yes and no. Inkscape does snap to paths, nodes (i.e. endpoints), and intersections of paths (see the document properties dialog). However, it doesn't yet snap to midpoints or quadrant points, which is planned for v0.47. When it comes to snapping, then you should definitely give one of our recent development builds a try because many improvements have been made since v0.46, see http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/ReleaseNotes047#Snapping
