I can vouch for Krita and Inkscape pairing well as vector art programs and even doing things that CSP, whose vector layers are pretty well liked, can't match. The issue is that drawing in Inkscape is a little bit broken(it can be done, but the current UX is death by papercut) - thus I approach it through the other program, which is basic but consistent.

So the workflow I end up using for digital inks is: Open both programs, sketch in Krita, copy-paste the vector data into Inkscape, stroke->path, then use tweak tool to sculpt the lines. This adds line weight in seconds-to-minutes. Alternately, I can apply path effects instead of stroke->path, if I want a more programmatic design. If I want to paint, I can copy-paste the shape back into Krita.

I'll have to give that a try some time, thanks for the tip!
