It's not that hard to implement. The hardest part really is solving the sparse linear systems once you assemble them, but there are libraries that can do that efficiently (SuperLU, TAUCS, UMFPACK). In terms of Inkscape I guess you'd need to add a new triangle mesh object type too. But that would be nice to have for various reasons.

"As rigid as possible shape manipulation", even with multiple input devices to make cute and dead-simple animations.

Yeah yeah day-dreaming. Something to look forward to.
