Since libpango development of the userfonts feature is very slow (currently at 0% done), I would like to ask you to keep in mind the possibility of adding special cases for SVG Fonts in the font family selector and in the text rendering on canvas.
We will have to special-case them anyway, because "fonts in this document" should logically be listed separately on top of all others in the font list.
I think the key class here is Font - we just need to teach it to deal with SVG fonts as it does with Pango fonts, and then little changes will be required in the rest of the codebase (hopefully). Unfortunately the original author of that class (Fred) is unavailable, but the class itself is much simpler than other Fred's classes in livarot.
