I'm afraid that's the cost right now. I highly doubt the template parser will start supporting SVG files natively. As you want to use template bindings in your SVG, it needs to be available to the compiler during *build* time. If you let go of the template bindings and use native DOM manipulation, you can pull in the SVG dynamically. But that has it's downsides too.
You can always put in a feature request in on Github. If enough people think this is a good idea, there might be native support for SVG files in the future!
