SVG is too heavyweight
for the purpose of such tiny presentational enhancements.

I can provide counterexamples:

An image is not a replacement for text in the real world, only in Ian's current drafts. And where it is, SVG is ideal for having beautifully styled selectable interactive text that is lightweight and easy to create (or heavyweight and bloated if you use something like inkscape, but still easy to create and easy to automagically optimise to something lightweight).

Which is why I disagree thoroughly with Chris' assertion here.
