It's actually not as simple as just taking the stroke width into account, either -- when you have mitred corners, they can stick out FAR beyond the stroke width.
Markers too.
SVG filters will also make finding the real bounding box increasingly interesting, when we implement them.
Maybe the renderer subsystem can give us the true bounding box of an object? I think this would make sense.

That sounds like the right way to do it. Don't know if the renderer provides that info, but it probably should.
