    It would be nice that there was an option of previewing SVG images, as well as exporting to PNG, with RGB Subpixel Rendering.
    Or even with Screen Type recognition, if the screen is a Pentile, or GBR instead of RGB, or vertically tilted monitors where Red is on top. Or at least a manual switcher.

    I used to make raster images for a program that does not support portrait mode for Windows, and I wished there was an option of exporting PNG images with this Anti-Aliasing method.
    I wanted my small images look sharp even on low resolution monitors.

    However I think it is unlikely to be implemented. I did a search for "Cairo Subpixel Rendering" seems it is possible but no one has implemented it.

    Perhaps using the SubLcd plugin for paint.net might be better.

    I made an example using it. Normal Text at top, Subpixel text at bottom.
