I've been working with SVGs quite a bit lately. Dealing with them is at times rewarding, and others extraordinarily frustrating. Case in point: different browsers handle adding an SVG filter onto a DOM element / SVG parent element / SVG child element very differently (in Firefox, if an SVG element that holds a filter is display:none, and you apply that filter to an element that is visible, the filter not only is not applied - but the element it is applied to also becomes display:none). Unfortunately, it's also not one of those things you can feature detect for: out come the user agent tools again... But yes, SVG is very very cool. For our use case, even IE9 is fairly up to par with it.
