Support SVG files in IMG tag

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. support: <img src="file.svg" />
2. support  <input type="image" src="file.svg"/>
3. and others tags that have src parameter for an image, including css

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system,
browser, and version of Flash?

Please provide any additional information below. Reduced test cases are
always appreciated!

This would include possibly patching in support on FF/Native, since FF doesn't 
yet
support SVG in images.

Changing this bug to only support SVG in the IMG tag, rather than in external 
CSS
(such as in backgrounds) which I suspect we will never support for a variety of
reasons (performance, complexity, etc.)

note that it is important to support <input type="image" src="file.svg"/> to 
permit 
that web applications using webforms also use svg

Interesting about the INPUT SVG support; what browsers currently natively 
support
that already?

I don't know what browsers suport it. 

I never use svg in my job because not all browsers support svg (AKA IE) or their
implementations differs or is buggy (FF 3.5 70% / Opera 10 94 % / Webkit 60%). 

But I believe that svgweb can be better than native svg and unify this.

And if this feature works fine (input type=image / img tag) I can convert tons 
of web
applications deployed by me in some corporations to use svgweb. 

Also svgweb will encourage native browsers to make this too if svgweb support 
this
feature.
