You could perhaps use <a href=your.svg><img src=your.svg></a> element  
instead of <object>?

What element referenced/embedded the svg is possible to find out, see this  
example:

   http://xn--dahlstrm-t4a.net/svg/html/from-svg-to-parent-html-script.html

 From an element elm inside the svg that was embedded by reference:

   var embedding_elm = elm.ownerDocument.defaultView.frameElement;
