About a year ago I implemented an SVG generator for my employer (not nearly
as complete as Batik), and I had a simple caching scheme for preventing
multiple copies of bitmap data, using the <symbol> and <use> tags. I had to
cut some corners to make it work, though. It would be nice to have a proper
solution in Batik.

Peter,
I'm pretty sure this can be done, I will have a look at it.
Thanks.
