That pretty much kills off SVG as a serious web development technology
then, doesn't it? Which is a shame.

Given their hideous track record of making web standards compliance an optional extra (or just inventing 'standards' to fit their own application architecture/vision) it shouldn't come as a surprise.

The problem of course is that they don't own the SVG idea or standards, therefore putting such support into the likes of the office suite would open up a whole can of IP worms, so they simply choose to dream up something so kludged and generally awful, it'll probably only be of any use to anyone knee deep in C#.
