I was initially thinking there might be a way to avoid a full-blown
parser/interpreter for PDF. But that would not work in all formats, so
it's probably not acceptable. So you're right.
For others following the conversation, the poll is at
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2023-01/msg00189.html
It's currently 3-0 skewed towards SVG.
Regarding rsvg and rust: maybe we could try with an older version of
librsvg first? Rust was only introduced in 2.41, so if we go with
2.40, we can postpone the worry about compiling Rust.
