Long story short. in my workflow, I use Inkscape - Adobe Illustrator - Adobe After Effects utilizing a PDF extension.
Adobe illustrator is used for one small feature called "Release layers". See, the Inkscape exporting PDF file with some kind of merged layers, so I cant use separate elements of my artwork in After Effects.
The thing is that PDF actually could store this "Released layers" state in itself. So maybe Inkscape could do it as well as Illustrator?
I'm attaching two PDF files. One created and Inkscape and one after layers been released in Illustrator.

Thanks!
AIUI, Inkscape's interface doesn't have much control over compiling to pdf. That's handled by a subroutine using Cairo (IIRC).
Unless somebody who knows more can chime in to say otherwise, I think there will always be an intermediate program.
