Sorry, that is what I meant, object pattern.  Since you could use a full pigment
for list item A and B, you could, in theory, make it do whatever you need,
including use the colors from the SVG.

I did mean parsing from SDL, I only recommended it because I don't know what
other languages you know.  That being said, an SVG reading script would be very
nice for your purposes and others, if you add it to the library.  I know this
came up before when someone was using InkScape as a path editor for lathe and
prism objects by reading the SVG file.
