Re: GSoC Proposal - SVG Export

[Étienne Beaulé]

That is more of a problem with Pixbuf (similar problem was fixed in librsvg). 
However, a case could be made to specify black for glyphs instead of 
currentColor, and I would be open to it (leaning against it though)

However, changing its use in LilyPond is non-trivial (if we wanted to do it), 
as the use of currentColor allows for colours to be changed in response to LY 
syntax.
