OK current API is.....

class GR_Graphics;
class UT_ByteBuf;
class PD_Document;
class ABI_EXPORT GR_EmbedView
{
public:
  GR_EmbedView(PD_Document * pDoc, PT_AttrPropIndex api );
  virtual ~GR_EmbedView(void);
  PD_Document * m_pDoc;
  PT_AttrPropIndex m_iAPI;
  bool m_bHasSVGSnapshot;
  bool m_bHasPNGSnapshot;
  UT_ByteBuf m_SVGBuf;
  UT_ByteBuf m_PNGBuf;
}

class ABI_EXPORT GR_Abi_EmbedManager
{
public:
    GR_Abi_EmbedManager(GR_Graphics * pG);
    virtual ~GR_Abi_EmbedManager();
    const char * getObjectType(void) const;
    GR_Abi_EmbedManager * create(GR_Graphics * pG);
    virtual void initialize(void);
    GR_Graphics * getGraphics(void);
    virtual void setGraphics(GR_Graphics * pG);
    virtual UT_sint32 makeEmbedView(PD_Document * pDoc,
PT_AttrPropIndex api) ;
    virtual void setColor(UT_sint32 uid, UT_RGBColor c);
    virtual UT_sint32 getWidth(UT_sint32 uid);
    virtual UT_sint32 getAscent(UT_sint32 uid) ;
    virtual UT_sint32 getDescent(UT_sint32 uid) ;
    virtual void loadEmbedData(UT_sint32 uid);
    virtual void setDefaultFontSize(UT_sint32 uid, UT_sint32);
    virtual void render(UT_sint32 uid, UT_sint32 x, UT_sint32 y);
    virtual void releaseEmbedView(UT_sint32 uid);
    virtual void initializeEmbedView(UT_sint32 uid);
    virtual void makeSnapShot(UT_sint32 uid);
    virtual bool isDefault(void);
    virtual bool modify(UT_sint32 uid);
private:
    GR_Graphics * m_pG;
    UT_Vector<GR_EmbedView *> m_vecSnapshots;
};

I'll look up the netscape plugin API soon.

Cheers
