I was surprised to see such disparate browser behavior in rendering an external 
SVG image within an HTML web page using the IMG tag, Despite the image 
specifying preservation of aspect ratio, on the Macintosh (Snow Leopard) 
platform, Safari and Chrome stretch the image according to the size of the 
browser page! (WTF?) Firefox and Opera don't stretch it at all, which certainly 
is correct behavior. (Camino doesn't render it at all.) Clearly, advice is not 
to use IMG for SVG as all browsers tested support IFRAME, OBJECT, and EMBED 
just fine.

This page demonstrates the issue:
