If only it were so easy :-/. That was my attitude, but at this point the majority of EPUB renderers do not handle SVG or do not handle it well. AdobeDE handles it fairly well, but appears to render only a subset of the full spec (perhaps SVG Tiny? I haven't seen it documented and I honestly haven't tried to pin it down yet). Calibre's 'ebook-viewer' is tied to the version of WebKit in the current version of Qt, which is pretty old and doesn't handle in-line SVG. The desktop version at least of FBReader has some support for SVG, but again doesn't handle in-line SVG, and renders SVG images at their "natural" size, ignoring any CSS size properties on their rendering box. Beyond that, AFAIK no dedicated reader application has any support for SVG at all.
