Only downside: I don't think Inkscape offers to do this via UI right now (I might be wrong), but I just tested the example (which I prepared in a text editor) in Inkscape 0.92.2 and it worked flawlessly.
There may be some memory leaks still kicking around but glad it still works.
In principle it also shouldn't be too hard to make the symbol dialog link symbols instead of embedding/copying them in the <defs> section.
There's a whole rainbow of options:
* Link directly from one document to another (has file reference issues) * Copy the clone into the document's clones list and create link <- we do this * Copy the clone into the document to make an editable version
I think fixing editability would be a big win, if we can somehow treat clone links like groups it would open up a bunch of functionality.
