Ok, I'll commit it then.

Don't know, thats why I don't want a hard dependency. Even more so since my
code needs a relatively new dot feature (client side image map output).

I don't intend this to go in before 1.0. I just wanted to discuss it so that
I can finish my patch
and stick it into bugzilla. Speaking about 1.0, what major problems do you

1.0 ? Regarding maintainership, ask again after 1.0...
