Done.

We can't move to 2.4.x of Commons VFS since that requires Java 8 and Ivy
has a minimum requirement of Java 7.

Like I noted in the JIRA comment[1] and even acknowledged by another
user in the PR[2], it's not yet in a state where we can confidently
introduce that enhancement. It will need a bit of research as well as
some testing to see how it behaves in the cases noted in that JIRA.
Given that it's an enhancement, I don't want it to block this release.
Having said that, I do have that JIRA (and few others) in mind, which I
plan to come back to after the release, in a subsequent version. So this
and other ideas aren't abandoned.

I had seen a PR for this one here[3]. Going by what the JIRA 
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IVY-922 states, I would have expected any 
change related to it, to be relatively straightforward. I'm not an expert on 
image processing, but looking at that PR, I don't understand why it isn't as 
straightforward as pointing to local image resources. The PR has a big change 
(even to Java code) which seems to generate the SVG images on the fly, from 
some auto-generated code from some library. Plus there are some changes to css 
files too, which I'm not fully clear about. For this specific JIRA if the PR 
was just about using local (png) resources for the images then it would have 
been easier to review and merge it. Having said that, I don't have an objection 
on it being merged if someone else with a bit more experience with SVG, it's 
generation and usage feels this change looks good. I see Jan has already 
reviewed it. So if the current conflict being reported in that PR can be 
resolved and if Jan or others feel this is fine, I'll merge it in this release. 
Again, I don't consider this one a blocker too, so if the review and discussion 
takes time, we can always have it included in a next release.
