SVG have been around for ages, the fact that this user asked for a vectorized version (to use for whatever reason) and he happen to notice an issue on the browser, doesnt mean his intentions is to put it on the page. That said, I strongly think we should switch to SVG, natively, is much smaller, and more open. There are also many fallback libraries like svg.js and modernizr for older browser.
