Here is a hastiyl thrown together proof-of-concept, done with prototype and script.acoul.us. It would be trivial to add buttons to control the transparency (but I am too tired):

Konqueror 3.5.6 fails the transparency effect, renders the SVG wrong and generally takes ages to decompress the JS library. Oh well. But "flashing" the second image would still work.
I think it would benefit from flipping between the two instead of the fancy transparency thing you've got going. It's not so easy to spot gradual changes: abrupt would be better. That would also make it a lot easier to implement, I strongly suspect, with no mucking about with transparency.
