233301 - Please include SVG in Mozilla's default build

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 122092

(Core :: SVG, enhancement)

Description

[Roland Seuhs]

User-Agent:       
Build Identifier: 

No matter how incomplete SVG-support currently is, SVG should be included into 
the default build, because: 
 
1) The real fancy features aren't usually needed anyway, but there is demand of 
simple features. For example I want to display text rotated by 90° which is 
something you currently can't do using html/css (AFAIK). 
2) In some cases you can tell users to download Mozilla, but telling them to 
download a specialized build that will break after every upgrade is just not 
feasible and a support nightmare. 
3) The specialized build is also not available as Firebird and also not with 
localization. 
4) Having SVG in Mozilla would be a great boost for the format. 
5) SVG support would also be a big boost for Mozilla itself. 
 
and the most important reason: 
 
6) There is simply no downside for including SVG, in my opinion. It doesn't 
hurt anybody when it's there but not used.
