I don't think so really, but I've not started hacking any code yet.

That is a nice possibility, and one which allows users to choose a
frontend option of antialiased rendered fonts instead if they wish. Text
then exists as a string in the libgeda end of things.

Gschem could still use all the libgeda primitive drawing objects it does
now for fonts, but do so at gschem's request rather than implicit in the
schematic's data-structures.
