No - Lombard has no plugin extension mechanism at this time.  If you 
want to contribute to Lombard, you'll need to write code in Vala.

I don't understand what you're asking - are you suggesting that we add 
an extension mechanism to Lombard, and asking how that should work?

I'm not personally familiar with Inkscape's extension system.  I am 
familiar with gedit's plugin system, which also allows plugins to be 
written either in C++ or Python.  If we add plugins to Lombard someday 
we'll probably model them after the gedit system, though I think that is 
unlikely to happen in the near future.
