So, this argument is only applicable to libraries used by many different software. I guess this is not the case with libcroco, otherwise it would be widely available on distributions and we would not need to carry it. So, this seems to be another argument in favor of including it (at least until it becomes common enough).
How did you come to that conclusion? It appears to be a dependency for librsvg, so pretty much all Gnome users should have it installed at least. I think the reason Peter even considered importing the code is that some limitations in the current version need to be worked around if it is to be used.
I didn't know about librsvg. From discussions with Peter, I got the impression that this library is not widely used and is currently stagnating or almost stagnating, hence my suggestion to import it.
