Wow, cute and clean :-)
However, I don't see it in the packages for my distro :-(
Maybe that can mean something...

And, on top, it's extremely painful in platforms were librsvg is not
available. Would it make sense to look at using the ICEWM library in Emacs
as an alternative? Downloading and compiling it as part of the process of
building Emacs seems less painful than building librsvg...

Just thinking about a summer challenge...
