Yes, I'm not very worried about search engines and probably most of the user won't worry about that too. I might render some fall-back table with tasks for the sake of it, though. Raphael JS seems a nice thing to get started, so I'll probably use it and create some kind of an SVG overlay and maybe move to pure HTML at some later point.
