I love this project. I will surely look into other areas of it. The next area I am very interested in are the effects.
We are planning, within a few releases from now, to migrate to the Cairo renderer from the one we currently use. Since many of the effects will either be provided by the renderer (such as blend modes) or at least done at the renderer level (such as Gaussian blur), it may make sense to postpone this until the migration. Of course you are welcome to do any preparatory work, or maybe even implement some effects which do not need to be renderer-based. Please share any thoughts or questions you might have.
Yeah, it doesn't necessarily need a right-click menu item. Even though I am going to be using this as a template engine, most people probably aren't. What I would love to see is user definable Python actions that can be added to the right click menu of specific sp-items. That would be perfect for my situation.
That's the domain of Ted Gould and Bob Jamison who are working on extensions and scriptability. If you could join forces with them it would be fun.
But also, having preserveAspectRatio in the object attributes (whether under advanced or not) is necessary in case somebody loads up an SVG and can't figure out how to get it to quit behaving counter-intuitively ;-).
Yep. I guess I'll code that one day (if nobody beats me to it :)
