In Trevor's demo it looked pretty straightforward. Sure, the data itself is no more readable to the human eye than rtfText or polygon points, but a simple copy-n-paste from an SVG XML file into the Inspector and bingo! SVG on screen.

Assuming that wasn't either a dream or some proprietary thing Trevor has that no one else has seen, I would imagine if the Inspector (coded in LC as it is) can do it, any of our scripts can do it too.
