All I am asking is to consider *existing* FreeType interfaces rather
than inventing a new approach. There is no need for FT_Set_Svg_Hooks.
It only looks like a good idea, but it isn't. Do you propose to check
is the library is available at runtime and decide then? That is not
easy..

Please do not touch FT_Render_Glyph_Internal. There is a loop there
that is supposed to find your renderer and match it with the glyph
format, once your renderer is set up correctly.

FreeType interfaces are well designed there is no need to hack.
