What Emrah Ünal is getting at, is that while most engines support the SVG
format, they can't yet make full use of them. It's like buying a
high-definition DVD player (or blu-ray, whatever) and watching it on a
regular TV - you have the potential, but you can't use it.
Specifically how it works, is the engine takes your SVG, renders it once at
a 1:1 scale, and then uses the render to save processing power.
I support SVG graphics because down the road engines will probably improve
in this area with the advent of high-definition monitors. It's all still
very new, so it will take some time for resolution-independence to be built
into an engine - and take even longer for it to run efficiently...

There is a GTK engine specially made for SVGs. I was just thinking this
could be used because we could make themes for several screen sizes.

What do you mean with SVG engine? Pixmap gtk engine can already handle
svg images. In fact svg images do not have a visible advantage vs png
images with current stretching model.

I think we should use the SVG engine in future releases. It does need
some work, but that could be done for 8.10+. Anyway, what does
everyone else think?
