+1 from me as well, but with a caveat:

My only concern is with the import process itself.  There is a lot of
important metadata in the existing SVN repository.  I believe that
this should be completely preserved, either directly within the git
repository, or as a separate standalone (and frozen) SVN repository.
The commit logs, test branches, and history is too important to lose.

Otherwise, I think it a good idea.

Why? It contains a definitive record of application performance, security
