(Get the code!)
I tried looking at the svg side and I'm a little confused.
How about, as a first step, modifying inkscape so that rulers and mouse pointer coordinate status use the origin that is indirectly defined by the viewbox? What about the viewbox units? Second step would be a gui to actually configure the viewbox within inkscape in a user friendly way. Finally, using those coordinates directly for new objects instead of inserting another transformation (I think this is what Krzysztof wrote in the previous post).

I played around with a hand coded svg, in case anyone else is interested I attached it.
This alone does not allow setting up an inverted y axis (to enable having y axis pointing up like now) but it looks like there is a ‘svg:transform’ attribute for that. Inverting the axis would also require things like flipping text, I think?

Maybe it helps if we can agree on how coordinate systems should be defined in the svg and how inkscape should display units and rulers?
I feel like I haven't really understood all issues.
