Hi,

Which svg renderer will be used? Which XML parser will be used? Because, that
could add heavy SDK deps to freetype.
librsvg is re-implemented in rust, and the only reasonable alternative I know
is the small and incomplete svg renderer from netsurf browser.

libxml2 is massive and heavy, and we can start to feel the weight of
expat.

Or will be there a font taylored svg renderer? (I guess that would add a dep on
cairo FT own vector rendering code).

regards,
