Thanks -- that'd be for after 9.4 of course.

Prefer

  * lisp/ob-latex.el (org-babel-latex-preamble): New option for LaTeX
  preamble customization.

"New option" is quite standard, an "option" being a customizable
variable.  In this case, "New option" would probably be enough, given
the name of the option is quite self-explanatory.  Also, some find it
pedantic, but "LaTeX" is the correct spelling in a changelog I guess.

The first line of the docstring should contain a sentence, so you'd
need to have a new paragraph after "runtime to the LaTeX preamble."

What for users who don't have inkscape?  

Thanks,
