You are right that there is no support for swash and outline variants; a new attribute in an inkscape namespace that is like font-variant but also allows for swash and outline is exactly the right way to do this.
Chris,
A couple of questions:
- Do you know if the SVG working group is going to pick this up at some point? Or is it a little too pedantic for web stuff?
- Do you know if anyone at Adobe is still working on SVG? It'd be nice if they could be keyed into this conversation -- interchange would be ideal even if we implement it slightly differently internally.
Corel and others too. I don't think we can entirely pull the data out of the font name if everyone else is putting it in. We can just be "more clear" in our own files.
