Shameless abuse of your thread, but related:
Please rething your decision about having the browser scale svg being
more important than other tools processing the svg with the expected
size.

https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=43060

So please put
* use coordinate system that all tools agree upon.

As mentioned in the bug either use no units and convert to pixel, or
specify size with units. I really think having it scaled in the
browser is less important than not breaking other tools that run out
of memory because they assume pixels.

ciao
Christian
