I want to emphasize, that this is a very important issue. At the moment, open
office does not support any standard vector format usable under Linux. Many
scientific applications can output into svg or eps, but as these formats are
unusable in openoffice, it is really hard to use impress for giving a talk.

If you walk around in scientific institutions like CERN, half of the people are
using Mac's Keynote, just because the presentations look better. I really think
openoffice should make an effort to support displaying either svg or eps.

I also think many of the voters for issue 2497 actually didn't mean importing
but displaying, which would be the most important thing. Furthermore, it seems
unlikely to me, that the svg import filter will ever support things like latex
formulas.

Is this really so difficult to implement? As far as I know Cairo supports
displaying svg...
