In general I agree, however it is extremely unlikely that Batik will have a release before FOP which means that this feature will remain broken in a second release. > It seems silly to put in a hack, when its already fixed in Batik's SVN Head. If it were a more invasive hack I would agree however in this case the hack is small and isolated and it will enable people to use 'stable' releases for FOP and Batik which is (right or wrong) important to many people. I don't have really strong feelings on this but I think that adding the hack is the better solution.
