SVG fonts also could provide stroked glyphs and a lot of other interesting things. I hope their support will not be removed from Inkscape !

Yes, I know :) I thought of power stroke and pattern-along-path as an Inkscape-specific vector effect that resides inside a switch, along with its output (svg:path). I think the switch mechanism will be needed anyway, because even the standard effects could use fallbacks to show correctly in SVG 1.1 viewers.
There has been a lot of discussion on the www-svg@...157... mailing list about fonts. SVG fonts may not even be kept in the 2.0 standard (replaced by WOFF). Being required to pass Acid3 isn't enough motivation for Firefox. See comments in bug report (especially comments #49 and #52):
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=119490
That is somewhat lame. I get the rationale, but SVG Fonts offer possibilities that are not provided by normal TrueType fonts (which WOFF essentially is), for example colored glyphs. I hope they eventually will get implemented in FF.
