This seemed to be the closest existing module to what I had in mind, so I'm posting here.

Basically allowing gui manipulation of an svg display. I've been doing research and it seems plausible, however I have no experience with svg or creating a drupal module.

Specific case: Room layout - however as drupal is, made generic enough to use in almost any situation.

Requirements:
Template UI for admin - defines objects, some editable, some fixed (e.g., room, furniture)
Manipulation UI for users - drag-n-drop objects, scaling, new object generation (if allowed)
Save / Export - Saving in SVG format, or export razterized (jpeg, tiff)

Possible Resources:

http://tool-man.org/examples/dragging.html
http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/batik/tools/rasterizer.html

Hoping this would peak your interest - however if you think this better posted elsewhere let me know.

I am keen on doing something like this once I master a few drawing implementations, would be quite fun to do I reckon.

There is something similar done over at image_overlay, might want to take a look at it.

Not much has happened on this issue, but it is still a worthy pursuit. I think a few other things need to be addressed before new features are developed. I am postponing this issue to make that clearer in the queue.
