Now that Firefox 1.5 has been deployed for my user

start sending SVG content directly to the browser. I realize that
Firefox 1.5 is not deployed everywhere but it is to my user base. That
being now established (hopefully) I noticed that there are many
workarounds within mediawiki that prevent SVG content from getting to
the browser as an image source. Can someone give me a hand at switching
all the locks?
Before doing that, you might want to take a look at all the outstanding
issues with SVG support in Firefox, namely:
* links dont work (they open inside the SVG)
* printing them is not usable (black background, HUGE fonts or other
issues making the print-out useless)
* incomplete support for SVG browsers (Firefox arbitrary, Opera only SVG
basic etc)
* Most browsers have huge problems with fonts (wrong sizes, not supporting
centering, tspans, or other problems)
* And there are quite a few bugs in there, as well.
A few issues I described here:

Of course, things can get only better if more users use SVG and pressure
the browser developers to clean up the mess :-)
If you want, you can test-drive Graph::Easy's SVG output here:
