If we do this (and I agree it makes sense), then we must have a plan on how to do it, and someone to be point person on the effort for making the decisions. If someone can identify these two things, then we can make this a hard block on the release.
I guess the thing to do is to do up a feature matrix to identify the features each PDF backend supports, and merge features from the other two PDF backends into the more complete cairo-based one. The matrix will also serve as a checklist to know when we're done, and for testing.
Alexandre, would you be willing to supervise this effort? Since I was the one making all the promises on Slashdot that we'd fix the PDF stuff for 0.45, I'll help out as much as I can, but I know my attention's going to be pretty divided.
