It really is quite nice at this point.

Is there some way to export pure base SVG, without any of that stuff in the "inkscape" namespace that carries around page size and such?

In the "Save as..." pop-up, you can set the file type to "Optimized SVG" (among other SVG output types, if I remember correctly). Picking optimized SVG pops up another dialog on save that can be used to configure the optimization passes.

I regularly use this to export small SVGs for the web.

You can select "Plain SVG" instead of "Inkscape SVG" in the file saving dialogue.
