and in practice, it seems only this works (ATM), and only in firefox

html:
<object type="image/svg+xml" data="bg.svg" 
	width="100%" height="100%"></object>

css:
object {
	position:absolute;
	top:0;
	left:0;
	z-index:-1;
}

but the object wont scale beyond visible view.
(eg. when the html content makes the browser to have scrollbars)
