For sure people may have close contact with actual Adobe Illustrator users may listened something about Scriptographer
http://www.scriptographer.com/Scripts/
the only issue is these scripts being made in Java language, and specificly to Adobe Illustrator - how hard could be recoding them for Inkscape/Python?

Re: Sciptographer on Inkscape
Scriptographer looks pretty cool for Illustrator users. I wouldn't assume it would be an easy task at all to create something similiar for Inkscape.
Note that it is JavaScript, not Java (very different).
