vector elements.
That could be good. At first I thought you were thinking of going towards an outline based shape description instead of the centerline and thickness description of traces. Using SVG just for the web rendering without changing the underlying functions is something that would help my customers use kit products and add on to them with a zero install UI running on my server. That would be great. It might add extra work for maintainers of pcb though. Do you think it could be done as a plugin that leaves the main code development as is?
