Hi Scott,

Thanks for your bug report.

You should use git-blame to find out if you care.

I'm not sure it's a bug.  It's IS clearly a quite complicated issue, e.g.:

    
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4476526/do-i-use-img-object-or-embed-for-svg-files

Perhaps it should be configurable, perhaps even as a default and a
per-image basis (via #+attr_html).

If you can provide a (html) solution that takes into consideration the
issues mentioned on SO that would of course be great.  In the age of d3.js
interactivity COULD be an issue (I would always load "interactive svgs"
via JS, but I'm a pretty naïve svg user so I don't know what's possible).
