SVG in 3?

Waaaayyy too late to be suggesting 3.0 features now, obviously, but I 
figured I'd try to keep hope alive for the future anyway ...

So I'm saying it now: I want SVG export. (Note that I didn't say 
"import". That would be nice, but not vital.)

I'm aware of Dinu Gherman's AppleScript, BTW, so maybe I should give it 
more whirls than I have already ...

Also, I've looked at the 2.x file format. It's nothing but a plist in 
XML. Very, very reverse-engineerable, shouldn't be impossible to go 
from that to SVG.

But it sure would be nice to hear Omni themselves say "why yes, we too 
would love to see SVG export one day, now stop bothering us so we can 
get it ready for 3.2." :)

Now I, too, am going to warm up the ol' credit card. Yes, I'm sold on 
3.0 Pro already. I'm completely hooked. Hope you Omni software pushers 
are happy. ;)

cheers
