We should support SVG. In particular:
* We could support rendering SVGs to PNGs when compiling the wiki. Not all browsers support SVG yet.
* We could support editing SVGs via the web interface. SVG can contain unsafe content such as scripting, so we would need to whitelist safe markup.
* I am interested in seeing [svg-edit](http://code.google.com/p/svg-edit/) integrated -- [[EricDrechsel]]

I'm allowing for inline SVG on my own installation. I've patched my
copy of htmlscrubber.pm to allow safe MathML and SVG elements (as
implemented in html5lib). <del datetime="2008-03-20T23:04-05:00">Here's a patch
if anyone else is interested.</del>
<ins datetime="2008-03-20T23:05-05:00">Actually, that patch wasn't quite
right. I'll post a new one when it's working properly.</ins> --[[JasonBlevins]]

I'd like to hear what people think about the following:
1. Including whitelists of elements and attributes for SVG and MathML in
htmlscrubber.
2. Creating a whitelist of safe SVG (and maybe even HTML) style
attributes such as `fill`, `stroke-width`, etc.
This is how the [sanitizer][] in html5lib works. It shouldn't be too
hard to translate the relevant parts to Perl.

Another problem is that [HTML::Scrubber][] converts all tags to lowercase.
Some SVG elements, such as viewBox, are mixed case. It seems that
properly handling SVG might require moving to a different sanitizer.
It seems that [HTML::Sanitizer][] has functions for sanitizing XHTML.
Any thoughts? --[[JasonBlevins]], March 21, 2008 13:54 EDT
[HTML::Scrubber]: http://search.cpan.org/~podmaster/HTML-Scrubber-0.08/Scrubber.pm
[HTML::Sanitizer]: http://search.cpan.org/~nesting/HTML-Sanitizer-0.04/Sanitizer.pm
I figured out a quick hack to make HTML::Scrubber case-sensitive by
making the underlying HTML::Parser case-sensitive:
$_scrubber->{_p}->case_sensitive(1);
So now I've got a version of [htmlscrubber.pm][] ([diff][])
which allows safe SVG and MathML elements and attributes (but no
styles&mdash;do we need them?). I'd be thrilled to see this
in the trunk if other people think it's useful.

Actually, there's a way to embed SVG into MarkDown sources using the [data: URI scheme][rfc2397], [like this](data:image/svg+xml;base64,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).
Of course, this way to display an image one needs to click a link, but it may be considered a feature.
