Project oriented integration with ccHost

Synopsis

When you work on a project like "new corporate style", usually you use a uniform base color palette, a uniform set of patterns and templates.

Since Inkscape already can talk to ccHost, it should be possible to set up a ccHost powered web storage for documents like swatches, patterns, templates, fonts etc. and use it from Inkscape along the usual Open Clip Art Library and/or Open Font Library.

ccHost installations as such are out of scope of this specification.
