I'm probably the one to bug about this, actually; I don't think the
upload script currently will accept .svgz except as "other", in which
case embedded metadata aren't supported.

Are .svgz files just gzipped .svg files?  It ought to be possible to
support those...

The current upload script does give them the lowercase .svg extension
(and always has).  Any that have .SVG must have been uploaded with the
old non-metadata-aware PHP upload tool.

I do think for now we should not delete them, since we might do
something with them at some point -- at least if they have metadata.

Agreed.  My PHP is pretty marginal, though.
