Description:
Since MediaWiki now renders SVG directly, it would be nice to permit choosing
wich layers to render. Look, for instance, at [1] and [2]. The first is just a
translation from the second. That could be done by means of specific layers
(perhaps the names could be normalized).
Example:
[[Image:whatever.svg|layers=map,lang_en|...]] , for the second one
[[Image:whatever.svg|layers=map,lang_no|...]] , for the first one.
This issue has infinite uses. We at pt: have an SVG map where we store
everything, from rivers to municipalities. We could choose on the fly which ones
to render. Obviously, the parameter format should be discussed - as to whether
we should choose which ones to show or the ones to hide.
