...yes, as I noted in the original message, you need the reader, which 
is why SVG as implemented today is PISS-poor.

SVG is an open architecture based on XML; it's the current PISS 
implementation which hampers its widespread use.  Move SVG into the IDM, 
as Mozilla is doing, and suddenly you have vector graphics that are 
scriptable with the exact same interface as DHTML -- that is, DOM Level 
2 (none of this document.layers or document.all crap).

I guess my point is that if browser manufacturers would get it together 
and bring SVG into the browser natively, we wouldn't have the graphical 
limitations imposed on us by HTML.  Manipulating DIVs is a giant hack.
