<pre>Right now, when selecting "paste special" after copying a drawing object, the
only available options are "draw 8", "graphic object", "GDI metafile" and
"bitmap". While GDI is a vector format, it would be useful to have the option
to paste "as SVG" without the need to first export the graphic and then insert
it.
Rationale: at least on my experience, pasting complex drawings on a Writer
document as Draw objects is detrimental to program performance, hence the
usefulness of using a vector image. SVG is a widely recognized standard and
LibreOffice already have the ability to both, export and display SVG files. For
all this "pasting special → as SVG" would be a really interesting option to
add.</pre>
