Well, let's dig into it then. In my mind, the most important question
is, how do you add new tiles?

The current, rather convoluted, process is to create a new tile with
Tile Designer, export the postscript file, convert it to SVG and GIF,
then hand-tweak the SVG and GIF files. Obviously this is sub-optimal,
but the tile set changes relatively infrequently, so I've just accepted
the inefficiencies.

If it's relatively easy to create new tiles in your format, I'm not
opposed to ripping out the current tile sub-system entirely.
