Frankly I'm wondering if we can't expose Inkscape's SVG path reading/writing to our Python extensions. Quite a lot of work has gone into making sure that they work correctly (and fast), why not leverage that? It would only involve wrapping svg/svg-path.cpp, svg/path-string and (parts of) lib2geom, all reasonably self-contained.
It is already possible to use lib2geom and its path-reading in python, however, the module has not officially been released. We would greatly appreciate any effort in making a lib2geom python release.
