The main ppoint about adding SVG path import/export was to allow for better integration with Sodipodi and other vector applications. The new functionality allows you for example to create a graphics in an vector application, export it as SVG, import it into GIMP and do some pixel-manipulation to fine-tune the result. The fact that you get the paths imported into GIMP should make this task easier since you can for example use them to create selections. Sven
