... I've been asked to sit on a panel at Open SVG 2010 titled "Graphical Effects Beyond SVG 1.1". I'll have five minutes before the discussion begins to present Inkscape's hopes for SVG 2.0. These are the things that I can think of at the moment. Please add to the list: ...
I'd like to be able to create a single filled object whose outline has multiple segments, with the multiple segments having different colours and styles.
I have a fudged example at http://audilab.bmed.mcgill.ca/~funnell/test_fill_multsegs.svg where I've overlaid 2 objects to get the desired visual effect. It would be very useful to be able to later edit a single outline and have the fill adjusted automatically.
An extension of this feature would allow two filled objects to share an outline segment between them, so that editing that segment would cause the fills of both objects to be adjusted automatically.
Examples of drawings that could make good use of these features are at http://audilab.bmed.mcgill.ca/~funnell/AudiLab/teach/me_saf/me_saf001.html and http://audilab.bmed.mcgill.ca/~funnell/AudiLab/teach/me_saf/me_saf002.html
