No. At least, not in the short/medium term.

You're talking about a completely new display architecture. The
current architecture is entirely unsuitable for writing a
PostScript/PDF/SVG/etc "driver".

Note that any display architecture which *was* suitable for generating
PostScript/etc output would be rule out the use of G_plot_polygon()
etc for rendering, so d.vect would need to be fixed.
