The ability to draw those outlines will also be useful for blurred objects and objects that have live path effects applied. :-)
One thing we will need to be aware of, though, is that the render-only-the-displayed-portion-of-the-path optimizations apply only to NRArenaShape, not SPCanvasBPath (which is currently what we have to use for "annotations" like nodes and these hypothetical outlines). Kind of a shame since the two classes do essentially the same thing, and one of the reasons I think the canvas code needs to have the two layers unified somehow.
