Looks (to me) like a precise duplicate (wrt to the list of requested features) of a report filed 4 days ago by the same author:
Bug #1088042 “wishlist: simple Inkscape usability, improvements....”
<https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/1088042>

<opinion>
yet another request listing multiple unrelated items at once - these kind of reports are not really "trackable" with regard to progress and implementation, and tend to linger around unclosed for years in the bug tracker :/
