As for merging stuff like the grids/guides branch, if you feel okay with merging that as is and if it's complete enough to not break anything, please feel free to merge it. This is a refactoring cycle and we have 11 blockers for a release with some of those probably waiting until late summer for Krzysztof to work on them. I also have to throw out that I still don't believe the cairo folk have added the api hooks to utilize the new pixman bitmap scaling stuff... so we may still be waiting a bit on upstream.
Jasper's recent temporary solution of scaling the image on our side, then using Cairo only to rotate / skew might be acceptable for the common case of embedding photos.
