Yes it is possible to merge path:
- using DOM API, just take the d value of the path and append it into
the d value or your intended path
- using Java geometry you can do more fun stuff like boolean operation
(union, subtract, etc), for Java geom you need to get the equivalent
of svg path into java GeneralPath and could use java Area class. To
get java GeneralPath/ExtendedGeneralPath, you could get it from the
Batik GVT

Not sure about this one, whether svg spec allow this (stroke being
only the outer edge)
