--- Comment #10 from Heiko Tietze <heiko.tietze at documentfoundation.org> ---
Both SVG and PNG are stored in the document. It looks like this

<draw:image loext:mime-type="image/svg+xml">
<office:binary-data>
PD94bWwgdmVyc2lvbj0iMS4wIiBlbmNvZGluZz0iVVRGLTgiIHN0YW5kYWxvbmU9Im5vIj8+
...
<draw:image loext:mime-type="image/png">
<office:binary-data>
iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAVoAAABCCAYAAAAWox40AAApCUlEQVR4nO2dBZAURxuGA9zh
...

I cannot imagine a sane workflow where the converted/compressed PNG can be
reassigned/recompressed from the SVG. What definitely works is when the PNG
would be solely saved for compatibility reason and the SVG is being used in the
document.

However, the issue remains that documents grow rapidly and I wonder if a
compatibility flag makes sense. Something like Tools > Options > Writer >
Compatibility "[ ] Save vector graphics as PNG" (off by default, IMHO). 

What do you think, Miklos?
