"Maybe".
It would be pretty nontrivial in Gecko; last I looked it would be pretty
painful in WebKit too. Can't speak for other UAs.
Svg via image is not quite the same as svg via HTMLDocument (I guess I mean,
embedded).
Sure, but that doesn't matter.
Afaik, svg via image does not have any script controls but it does have xsl
things.
And CSS.
Put in other words:<img src=image.svg> may use an entirely different implementation
than<svg> in an HTML document.
It _may_, but it would likely be pretty buggy. And at least in Gecko, I
don't think we're willing to duplicate enough of the rendering engine to
do this.
