It would be very helpful, if Firefox just scaled the size of any .svg (Scalable Vector Graphic(s)) to match the size of the <object> tag or <iframe> that embeds it into the HTML or XHTML page.
Using the SVG format does not have any advantages over bitmap formats like PNG at the current level of implementation.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Embed your .svg into (X)HTML using <object> or <iframe>.
2. Set the attributes heigt and width of the embedding tag to a value smaller than the values specified directly in the SVG file.

Actual Results:  
You will see just a section of the SVG file an scroll bars.

Expected Results:  
I expected to see the full SVG image scaled to match the size of the embedding tag.
