We do that with ImageAtlas, I think I saw, where the ImageAtlas is a DEF, then texture is referenced by USE for mapping to several independent Shape Appearance nodes.

separation of concerns, i.e. keeping url networking separate from FontStyle presentation,  not overwhelming FontStyle functionality.  Thus, FontStyle.url is simply incomplete design, and FontStyle.fontLibrary is a more-correct alternative, if we want font scope limited to a single FontStyle node.


 
I don't understand why the same argument doesn't also apply to ImageTexture.  I'm not seeing ImageTexture.url networking separate from ImageTexture presentation?  Do we need an ImageLibrary?
