Hi Frank,

I think the feature is going to be held in a queue until Inkscape 1.0
is out the door. But this means it's going to need support, to keep the
branch up to date (sync with master) as well as improve it and refine
it.

It would be great if you could help with this process. Just keep an eye
on it, test it now and then and see if there's anything interesting in
the work you've done (like the embedded script feature) which would be
a good fit to add. In my experience cool ideas happen only when the
force behind them puts the time in to making it happen and you could
create amerge request to merge your ideas into Thomas' branch without
it having to touch master first (this is the advantage of git).

Thanks for looking at the branch too, I was hoping you would find it
exciting!

Best Regards, Martin Owens
