I would like to know, if it is possible to setup new custom icons in inkscape in order to call custom python extension ? and how ?

Let me try and answer a few questions here:

- To add an icon to Inkscape you need to edit the icons.svg file that is included in the distribution. You can have one of these in your preferences directory (~/.inkscape on Unix)

- The toolbars themselves are currently hard coded in released versions of Inkscape. Jon Cruz is currently working on making these more dynamic, so you will have to edit some code to adjust them currently.

- If you create an Effect in Python and connect it through the extensions system it will be automatically added to the Effects menu, so it is accessible.

- Doing this will give you a verb ID, so you can put it manually in your menus anywhere, including on the main bar. You'll need to edit the menus.xml -- and use the extension ID as the verb ID.

I hope that helps.
