However, there are ways to embed bitmap images in normal SVG (via data: URIs), and I believe we support that already (though I don't think we have UI for selecting this option yet). Note that using data: URIs means we've got to base64-encode the image data, so it's not really suited for very large images.
Also embedding images with base64-encode makes Inkscape very very slow. This was one of main the reasons why I started coding this extensions
