The primary constraints behind a better rendering engine are: * resources * knowledge (a very small set of people understand the complexities of font rendering) * patents (which prevent using many of the available methods out-of- the-box for better rendering) In short, I think your best bet will be to discuss this with the Xorg/ GNOME communities directly.
