That would allow the front-end code to just pull the destination URLs from
imageinfo and fetch the image data directly.
Yes. I have no trouble only enabling this for modern browsers, with just
Apache config. SVG isn't even available on any version of IE in general use,
including IE8.
Note that SVGEdit does work on IE9 preview, if using the latest editor code!
