Hello Jean,

We probably will have some difficulties with SVG filters, hence we
need some extensions for "styles".

For WMF and EMF we need to discuss how to deal with ExtText DX-array.
We need more advanced clipping support (especially for EMF), basically
it comes down to sum/extract/intersect operations on closed paths.
We need support for raster operations (probably for SVG too, have to check).

To support "WordArt" we probably need some kind of "Goc_Artistic_Text"
(word and powerpoint use more advanced version than excel, probably
AbiWord team would be interested to use goffice for wordart).
