I would definitely be an improvement over the current text renderer.  By 
the way, do you have an idea of how will it affect the speed of plotting?

On the other hand, what is the main reason for not using the system LaTeX 
renderer and use lasme (or any other built-in renderer) as a fallback?  I 
get that on some (most?) systems LaTeX is not installed but if it is why 
not use it?

Best,
Paweł
