It looks like you put a lot of effort into this, thanks! Those SVGs do
look great, and it's IMO it's a much needed feature to support images in
our documentation :) I will leave it to others to discuss if the
generated SVGs are a technical fit for the documentation code.
I would recommend that you transfer the contents of your proposal to the
PostgreSQL wiki (https://wiki.postgresql.org/) as it would make it
easier for others to collaborate on and contribute to it. If you need
help with it, please feel free to ping me.
The one thing that I see is if we would like to have a style guide,
primarily around colors, for images we put into the repo. I know that
somehow correlates with the definition of "bike shed" but it could also
help reduce that in the future. As we do have a PostgreSQL color
palette, I also see that as an opportunity to reduce potential
bikeshedding as well.
Thanks!
Jonathan
