OK.

A question related to the compression library:

Assuming the Brotli library from Google is used, how would it be
integrated into the codebase? Should the build system be modified to
look for the library in the system (like for the gzip drivers), or
should the source code be included and built with FreeType?

Also, the Support API has functions to open and uncompress gzip
streams. I believe this won't be required for Brotli?
