Comment 5 for bug 169985

The problem with this extension is that it doesn't provide a way for user interaction about overriding files that are already on the filesystem. This could be a distructive action that is not undoable, so therefore the user must be prompted on whether this should be done.

I think that the solution for this type of extension is to define a new type of extension, something like "Output Multiple" so that Inkscape can handle the interaction and ensure that the user is comfortable with destroying previous work.

Considering the state we're in (chill) for Inkscape 0.46, I think it's unlikely to make it for that version. But, I think that this new type of file handling has been requested by many other extension developers (HTML page I can thing of specifically) so it should be done. I'd be happy to mentor someone wanting to work on it.
