Symbols and other resources referenced from stylesheets #12

Open cportele opened 3 years ago

Discussed in the 04-MAY-2021 meeting:

Originally the draft included API building blocks for such resources including a collection resource. This was removed in Pull Request #10, because strictly it is not necessary that such resources are organised and published in a specific way, they just need a http(s) URI.

However, in the Visual Style Editor use case it may be helpful to be able to point to a list of symbols that could be used.

Meeting 2021-05-18: Also a topic where we want feedback from the sprint. Is there a need to publish symbol or font collections? If it is used consistently, it can simplify clients to work with multiple symbol/font collections. This could also be in scope of an extension (part 2).
