IMHO, Inkscape ranks alongside Gimp. Inkscape is a superb tool, but:

1) Would it be technically easy/feasible to integrate it into LibO?
That would be the first question to evaluate...

2) Will most Draw users want to take onboard the added concepts and
complexities of layers, paths etc, and all those filters and
extensions?
I guess that problem could be solved with a combined theming and menu
configuration capability, so that you can have a fully customizable
UI. Then you could have LibO with UIs and functionality sets designed
for different audiences...
