Thanks Fernando, i saw your PR yesterday and it indeed looks good (note it
is still in draft).

The one feedback I had was to consider changing your implementation from
gt-render MarkFactoryListPredicate to gt-metadata
org.geotools.util.factory.FactoryListPredicate<? extends Factory>

The functionality is based on the factory name and is not MarkFactory
specific.
