Interesting stuff. Replacing the MyPaint strokemaps with it would mean to
rethink the whole concept; the strokemap is based on black-and-white
bitmaps, not on vectors.

It sure would be possible to save stroke information, either alongside with
the current strokemap, or in place of it, with some effort.  But what for? 
Anyone got plans/ideas how to use this information?
