Sure thing it needs much more polish :-/ Fortuantely boolean ops
will be there for 0.34 :-)

Can you send screenshot vs. png export to illustrate this? Maybe it
is caused by MacOS X display color calibration, because the code
for png export and display rendering is exactly the same?

exporting bitmap encapsulated into PS document. Vectorial PS
code lacks most features...
