Aside from that, I think a canvas analysis may be the next major step. Perhaps this could even be done in parallel. Basically, we'd need to decide if we want to:
a) Go with goocanvas or papyrus or some other 3rd party lib b) Adapt our existing canvas layer to work with Cairo c) Create a new canvas layer d) Some combination of the above e) Stick with what we have
If we do stick with what we have, another option to consider is breaking it out into a stand-alone library atop Cairo, that others can use independently of Inkscape. We've had many RFE's opened requesting this.

I think this is a wise strategy that will win us even more points in the larger community and will help out inkcore concept. Who is the right person to help outline this strategy and what is next IYO bryce?
Jon, one thing you could do is to touch base with the goocanvas and/or papyrus developers and ask if they've considered Inkscape's canvas and if they'd had a chance to look at Inkscape's sp_canvas.
