There is no connection between the technical platforms, producing dxf files and the gis-world. To combine this aereas, it is necessary to read dxf-files as native function in qis. (The way about grass plugins does not realy works.)

Converting dxf2shp loose important informations. Examples are attached.

In general, it is difficult to use dxf files in a GIS without conversion, because of the deeply different data model

Please note that in spite of the name, the suggested solution (opendwg) is non free, so probably cause of other hassles. Probably better to go on and improve the already working plugin, or port it/rewrite it to OGR
