Re: svg image support

[Ivan Vučica]

Why rasterize SVGs? Unless an SVG is overly complex, it’s easier to just pass it in src attribute as-is, and just override width and height as needed, no?

Instead of this, I was thinking I could also add something that checks if you have a "convert" command available and shells out to that, otherwise just fails silently. So just works like it currently does, or will rasterize the image if you have imagemagick commands in your PATH. I'd like to do something here, would be nice to be able to preview SVGs the same way I can with other images.
