Bug Description
I'm VERY grateful for this feature and will abandon xfig for inkscape if it works properly.
This is for 0.47+devel June 16
If I have a file named foo.tex it will be overwritten without warning when I Save (or Save As) eps/ps/pdf and select the new +LaTeX export feature. This can be a problem if I decided to manually change foo.tex after a previous save, or I simply had a foo.tex before making the Inkscape document of the same name.
xfig had a partial fix for this by calling this file foo.pstex_t or something (that prevents someone who is adding the picture foo.eps to the LaTeX document foo.tex from killing their LaTeX document).

the problem of manually changing foo.tex after previous save cannot be solved.
the overwriting is a problem indeed. especially for new users that name their svg like their document...
I'll see if i can fix it. (such that it works like it would for an already existing eps/ps/pdf document)
