This would complicate the code behind Inkscape and the user interface a lot. It’s not just having an option to enable raster editing, the entire program must be rewritten, because its not designed to do raster editing. If they started with raster editing, it would be lacking too and the horrors from users would never end. I rather want Inkscape stay focused to what its doing best.

Either use GIMP or Krita. There are already excellent or good enough image editing tools.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
