Bug ID: 54030
Summary: Support PhantomJS as an SVG rasterizer/renderer option
Product: MediaWiki
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
URL: http://phantomjs.org/
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized

PhantomJS <http://phantomjs.org/> is a JavaScript wrapper around a headless
WebKit browser, which can be used to among other things load web pages and take
"screenshots" of them.
Since WebKit supports SVG... this might be a great way to get SVG rasterization
that's more consistent with modern browsers than something like rsvg, or
Java-based like Batik, or all GUIish like shelling to inkscape.
A daemon or web service might be more efficient than a shell-out to a local
script, since we don't want to have to load and link a whole WebKit on every
image.
