- The idea of transforming an already filtered object (i.e., in
essence, a bitmap!) goes absolutely against our architecture, in which rasterization and filtering are always the last step after all things that can be done in vector (such as transforms) are done. If we try to fix this to match Batik, we will need to implement a separate bitmap transformer (!) which will have to be run for filtered objects _only_ (otherwise we'll end up with pixelated renditions of any scaled-up object). This will be a total mess from the programmer's viewpoint if you ask me.
Can we apply the object transformation to the blur kernel rather than blur with an untransformed kernel and trying to transform the rasterised results?
