Why we should include this into the repository, i.e. what does it do that the alternatives do not?
It it needed to use LaTeX code inside Inkscape. The alternative would be Tex Text, which is also not in the repository from what i could see. Inkscape is in the repository, so it seems only logical to include pstoedit as well.
