But that now means not only changing SVG import but also our PDF export to
Skia, and then there is also EMF / WMF export, which are needed in some
cases.
Converting from Skia internal vector representation to drawinglayer
primitives would be easier - but then probably we also lose the
benefits...

I think improving svgio fidelity isn't all that hard to do and surely we
can improve performance too considering that we didn't do any performance
work yet.
