  1. It a requirement of the epub3 spec. Epubcheck flags it as an error.
  2. Modify Epub uses an svg wrapper for it's inserted/replaced cover image.
  3. AFAIR, calibre (Polish, Save to, Send to or Modify Epub) will modify the metadata but not the manifest or spine segments of the .opf file internal to the epub. If I edit the epub, all bets are off.

Perhaps I should make it clear that I would like this option when Modify Epub is inserting or replacing a cover and the epub version is 3.

Code:
titlepage.xhtml ERROR(OPF-014):  The property 'svg' should be declared in the OPF file.
