--- Comment #21 from Brion Vibber <[email protected]> ---
The main thing we want to do is get compatibility testing automated --
round-tripping problems when editing existing files is the biggest problem with
SVG-Edit for Wikipedia potential usage.

I have a proof-of-concept:
https://github.com/brion/svg-edit-test

(this currently only runs in Firefox because other browsers taint <canvas>es
that have SVGs drawn to them.)

Needs some more work:
* add a back-end data store to save original files, round-tripped files,
renderings, and subtractive comparison images
* add a front-end test runner that automatically churns through thousands of
images
* add a front-end dashboard that shows images with large difference scores and
allows easy searching

Probably we want to set this up on a Wikimedia Labs instance.

Then we can start identifying round-trip failures cases and seeing about fixing
them.



In addition or as an alternative, we could update SVGEdit extension to current
code and either limit it to new files or files that were created with SVGEdit,
or add a warning that editing may damage files.
