The subset of SVG OOo supports (well, it's actually just a subset of the entities, not necessarily the semantics) is too small, and the amount of processing too big for this conversion to be of any fidelity.
But depending on the requirements, any transformation might be better than no transformation - and clearly, having svg<->odf xslt can be useful in a web server context e.g. So, Ray, knowing the limits, your offer is surely welcome!
