No, it is not perfect, no application is, however. The best part of Inkscape though it is its fidelity to SVG specs. Like Scribus, the Inkscape Team is quick with bug fixes and is very open minded about feature requests and enhancements. Almost every function can be handled by keyboard short cuts (the list of shortcuts is almost 10 pages).
In its favor: A very friendly user interface, with extensive tool tips and a couple of really well done short tutorials on vector drawings. The most recent version has made a lot of progress and has new import/export options. The Inkscape Team has made a lot of effort to faithfully adhere to the W3C SVG specs. That said, Inkscape is rapidly becoming the leading OSS SVG vector drawing or "illustration" tool. Inkscape's development is an excellent model for OSS developers to follow. b: The Inkscape Team was not a really great bunch to work with. However, I would not bother a: If Inkscape was not such a terrific application with a really bright future. Disclaimer: I am technically one of the Inkscape Team members, though mostly to liaise with them and build rpms.
