@Johan - I fail to find such a specific request for the command line:

a) Did you refer to the RFE for the GUI to support saving in multiple formats at the same time?
 Bug #182937 “Multi-save in my chosen formats whenever I hit ctrl-s”
 <https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/182937>

I don't see that one related to the task described in this report (which aims to optimize performance when using Inkscape as mass file convertor on the command line).
The current '--shell' mode already allows to reuse the same inkscape process for several operations (from the command line), but doesn't support usage of verbs for example, nor are verbs scriptable (they take no arguments).

b) or did you refer to one of these?
 Bug #503784 “export to dxf via command line”
 <https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/503784>
 Bug #361237 “Provide scriptable method of saving files”
