Google has opened a service recently called Google pages that allows google users to create their own web pages for free hosted by Google.
if you upload an SVG image the dialog warns you that the image type that you just uploaded (SVG) is not supported by most browsers. This is not true, SVG is supported by FireFox. Opera, Konqueror, Safari, Amaya, and with Adobe plugin support, IE.
Project: Update the Google Pages interface to handle SVG and allow SVG images in Google Page content.
All you can really do is file a request through standard channels and encourage other users to do so. Writing about it in your jounal if have one, would be a good way to draw attention to this.
I've made the SVG working group aware, Chris has contacted Google and they say they are looking into it, I've posted a SoC request with Google and suggested it here.
As I think Alan alluded, it sounds like this may be more of a Google project than an inkscape project, but I think we'd be open to collaborating. Definitely let us know if you hear more from Google about this idea.
