Hi,

There is a proposal before the ISO C++ standards group for a technical
specification for 2D graphics based on the Cairo API.[1][2] It seems to
have gained some traction. My question here is what is missing in the
Cairo API that would be useful for rendering SVG?

Inkscape currently uses Cairo for rendering SVG so I have also asked on
the inkscape-devel mailing list.
