Technically that should certainly be possible - with some limitations 
though. Most notably, I expect such splines to be useless in animations, 
as the "time" values would presumably be arbitrary and unrelated to the 
actual length of the individual spline segments.


As an aside, the FreeType library also supports some font formats that 
are stroke-based rather than outline-based.

As for Bezier splines, it is a shame we don't have a common consistent 
spline framework across all spline-based features, and if I (or someone 
else?) ever find the time I hope that will change.
