Thanks that you ask but half a day between asking and doing might be not 
enough for everybody to give his opinion.

I think we should have a KoPathShape which does all the svg handling. It will 
be responsible for all kind of objects when it is implemented even for 
rectangles. The reason for that is that you like to be able to modify all the 
points of a rectangle. The way karbon does this at the moment looks like a 
good start. Each object still has to know if it is a polyline/rectangle until 
it is deformed so that it can no longer saved as this kind of object. The 
reason for this is that we want to save a rectangle as a draw:rec and so on 
according to OpenDocument.

No problem.

Will it be possible to use flake inside koffice the same as the one of the 
playground. I ask as this as I like to know if I will be able to use flake 
without allways updating kde first.
