python plug-ins for paths

[Espermaschine]

Can python plug-ins that work with paths in Gimp, be modified so that they work in Inkscape, or is that a complete different approach to writing code ?

Im asking because trandoduction wrote the 'Select Area Between Paths' plug-in and it would be great to have something like this as an extension for Inkscape.

Yes, if the thing is really just about computing paths, but TDDT's script is actually using bitmap selections.
