Also note that SVG itself supports arbitrary embedding of images.

It would be neat if SL at least had the "shader" functionality that
Quake 3 did in *1999*. You can manage most of them with some painstaking
prim layering, but that's a hack vulnerable to Z buffer rounding error
and LOD throwing things off. Quake 3 *is* GPL now... :)

And I still think it should be possible to directly write GLSL shaders.
Of course, there would have to be a provision for non-GLSL fallback, as
it's still going to be a few more years before we can expect it to be
universally available.
