What does it matter what the client says? It's your job to decipher what they mean. I'm just stating that there are virtually zero SVG apps in use currently and once there are some, more developers will catch on when clients start asking for similar apps.
If you ask me though, I say let it go unnoticed because then our apps will have a giant advantage toward people going for Flash and Canvas solutions. Look at people who develop Cold Fusion and similar, they charge out the ass for it because they know there are fewer people to develop and support their apps. If our currently small SVG community holds on to this niche, we will not only be able to woo people into the advantages of our apps over other technologies, they will only be able to come back to us to support it later on.
