I can see how an integrated inventory system would be a great 
enhancement for both home users and for business users; for home users 
for using as a home inventory for uses such as insurance - knowing the 
purchase price and (estimated or replacement, or both) values of 
household contents (and, being able to find the location - "Where do we 
keep that computer?" :) ), and, for businesses, obviously useful for 
businesses that sell goods (rather than, or, in addition to, services).

>From what I have read on the Architecture web page, if my understanding 
is correct, GnuCash appears to be written in mostly guile/scheme. The 
Price/Quotes component mentioned, appears to be in Perl. If someone was 
to write an inventory component, could it be written in Perl?
