Please say a few words more, Mr. Delacour.

I mildly agree with you--but I suspect we might see different
pictures when we use the same words.  What, for you, is the
significance among end-users of scalable images?  What's the
"business case" you see for vector, as opposed to raster,
graphics?

For me, SVG has already gone more-than-nowhere.
