Well, I'm all for seeing what you are thinking about.  A branch, or even
just a list of the proposed APIs in an email is fine if you want to get
something for us to see without having to chase down all references to
Graphics from the other code in the repo.

I haven't looked at Canvas yet, but I happened across [1] where a code
snippet looks like:

var draw = SVG('drawing').size(800, 800).path("M75,0 L75,118.85 A30,30 0 0
0 640,660.15 L568.5690264688633,781.8607965826662 ").attr({ stroke:
'#000', fill: 'none' });


I haven't found an actual "curveTo" call on SVG.  Maybe I'm missing it, so
I'm having trouble envisioning how much JS code will be written and run to
emulate Flash graphics vs creating API that would support snippets like
this that people might find on the web and try.

Thanks,
-Alex
