Yes, I considered this.  They are not general enough yet, but even in their
early state they must of course handle well what JMS says they work with, so
I'll make sure we know the limitations and test them.  I'm helping JMS a
little and could confirm the gimp 1.0 - 1.2.5 one already works.  Could you
send me sample files that do not work?

The menu entry will be like: Paths (.svg, .ps, .eps, .ai, Gimp) and then the
submenu will list the choices once entry is clicked.  The tooltip will warn
that it's early code (experimental).
