SUMMARY
Tested with appimages on Debian 10 and a simple 'Plain' .svg file Saved from
Inkscape.

Versions 4.1.0 to 4.1.5 will produce a canvas display of an .svg file as a File
Layer.
They show various setup options and ask what the ppi resolution should be.
Then, if the .svg file is edited and Saved by Inkscape, that event is
recognised and the user is given the option to change the ppi in a small 'popup
window'.

Later versions have loss of functionality as follows:

4.1.6: Not released.

4.1.7, 4.4.8 (intermediate versions not tested):
These provide all user option questions but do not display the .svg file
contents.
They recognise when the .svg file has changed and offer a ppi change but do not
display contents.

5.0.1, 5.0.2, Jan 10 Nightly:
These offer all user options and also display the .svg file contents in the
initial File Layer definition windows.
They do not display .svg content on the canvas and they do not recognise when
the .svg file has been updated.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
See Summary

OBSERVED RESULT
See Summary

EXPECTED RESULT
An .svg file specified during File Layer creation should be displayed.
Its update should be recognised and dealt with.
