Hello, > This was imported perfectly for me, if it still fails to you, maybe > you should filla bug report (Try validation your svg first using the > svg validator - http://validator.w3.org/ ).
But not worked for me when whole document is imported. I checked the document and it passed SVG 1.1. validation successfully. I got empty paths imported, and merged empty path. I will report this issue as a bug. > GIMP renders path in XOR painting mode for the sake of visibility (XOR > mode is usually easily visible on most possible backgrounds).

UV layout path is organized as polygonal grid. Generally, if you have a grid of polys and render it XOR-ed, the result is outline, because inner polylines are overlapping.

You don't even need a code profiler to measure a task of painting with path(s) visible and hidden. The units are in seconds. The uv layout path is from a game low poly model, consisted of cca 1000 quads. Some parts are mirrored in uv's so ...it is even less when counting uv vertices. > GIMP is not meant for vector graphics, and therefore I believe that > importing paths as is from svg is enough.

This means that code for SVG parsing resides in GIMP and in SVG library. When SVG standard upgrades the GIMP SVG parsing code should be updated too. This is error prone solution. I think that better solution is that 'librsvg' do the parsing job and that GIMP can fetch points from the lib to render. The same points which GIMP now parses from SVG document. These are just plain points, without any stylization which suffice for rendering path. If you consider rendering paths out of OpenGL you will need just points issued via glVertex2** command. The curves needs additional work to interpolate in between points, but final points are also rendered as lines. Cheers, Mirza.
