Robert, did you mean something like:
<svg><foreignObject><iframe src="some.svg"/></foreignObject></svg>? That might work (well, if some xhtml namespace magic is added), but it's likely to be inconsistently implemented (at least that's my experience, but if you stay away from transforms, filters, clipping etc then it might work well enough in a couple of the browsers). In any case you don't need a foreignObject to be able to nest <svg> tags, that works just fine without <foreignObject>. But that's not really embedding, that's inlining. If on the other hand the main document was an html document, which had one inline svg defined in it, it could easily add an <iframe> on top of the svg that referenced another svg. That should work fine in all the browsers, including IE. If you really need to keep the svgs separate and let script both these documents then this is what I'd recommend.
