Hi,
I found a website that lists a lot of very fine free software for art
and design (http://www.libregraphicsworld.org/  ) and in that list I
found one app that is wonderful...

It's called contextfree (you can apt-get it!) and it's all command-line
based. You write a small script kind of thing and then use the cfdg
command to make a png -- and here's the coolth -- or an SVG!
(http://www.contextfreeart.org/index.html)

How would one go about interfacing this into Inkscape? I can see a
really nice extension arising out of it; a little preview, a link to a
text editor and a Render button.

While you are here, there's another generator app that takes it into the
3rd dimension. This one is called 'structure-synth' (also apt-gettable).
Imagine if that could also be brought into Inkscape! (although it does
not supply svg output :( )
