That is a great idea :-) +1 on creating an unsupported module :-)

If you have not already done so you will need to go though the motions outlined 
in the developers guide 
(http://docs.geotools.org/latest/developer/guide/roles/roles.html) of sending a 
code contribution agreement in; when that is in the mail we can set you up with 
svn access.

However: we already have a couple of renderer extensions; so lets try for a 
better name to avoid confusion.

The docs 
(http://docs.geotools.org/latest/userguide/guide/library/render/index.html) 
lists:

- gt-chart
- gt-swt

Are there any more? Since there is already a "gt-epsg-wkt" how about 
gt-render-wkt?
Perhaps not the best it looks like an alternate render implementation.

How about the following for no confusion:

- gt-mark-wkt

Maybe if we ask nice the other two could be renamed to match.

Notes:
- I know it is an internal detail but the name of your factory ShapeMarkFactory 
may be confusing for those expecting a Java Shape?
- Oh, looking at the details, the single factory supports two things :-) I 
would recommend a single factory but it is a matter of style so probably not 
valuable feedback.

Xperia(TM) PLAY
It's a major breakthrough. An authentic gaming
smartphone on the nation's most reliable network.
And it wants your games.
