Well, a person can already find an SVG-enabled version of Firefox, if one looks hard enough. But how do you get this voodoo magic to the unwashed masses, and the PHBs? It really needs to be in every browser.

What SVG needs for it to start gaining momentum is a user base. Imagine if 6% of browsers in use already (FF's share) could display SVG without any extensions or plugins. People would actually start putting content onto their sites. Maybe not completely; but a server could check for "Accept: image/svg+xml", and for those lucky people show a detailed SVG rather than a crappy bitmap. More content, more browsers; more browsers, more content.
