I realized I made a mistake here.  #754 is the font bug, which appears to
affect Ubuntu.  I don't have QGIS running on Windows at the moment, so I
don't know anything about the status of #737.  Sorry for any confusion this
may have caused.

I've marked #758 as a defect, since this is normal behavior (unless you have
an extremely fast computer).  The fix would be to replace the image with a
dashed box while dragging, instead of trying to render it along the way.

I'll try to look into the SVG stuff.  It's currently unusable the way it is.
