This should not be hard under gtk2, assuming the render/xft extensions
are
available. Those should also make transparency available much more
easily.
In fact, after a gtk2 transition, I think arbitrary transformation and
translucency would be worthy goals.
And if scaling is redone: dont forget units
for example if you want to make a small map diagram, being able to set
the scale
at e.g.( 3 real cm = 1 mile, 2 screen inch = 1 real cm ) would be very
good scaling
support.
