Alwinovicz, Generally speaking, there is no reason to use SVG where html works better, and html works very well at forms and text rendering.
Where svg is useful is in applications involving contextual information delivered visually. This is of course why GIS has been quick to adapt SVG as a presentation layer. To find applications using SVG, you have to look for applications that need to provide image data. One of these is bioperl, http://www.bioperl.org/ a genetics analytics framework for academics developped in Perl. The graphical output of bioperl is SVG. Also, you will find a number of monitoring systems using SVG for the rendering layer. There are very few SVG apps on the general-use internet because of the lack of a common viewing solution. Internet applications require a high penetration of the technology on the browser before they use it, and the svg browser support is simply not there at this point to justify web apps for the general public written in SVG. You will, however, find SVG applications in intranet solutions which need to show meaningful data visually. To find these, you generally need to find out what applications support the technology. For example, Oracle 10g on upwards support SVG output of their data... But this is essentially only used in intranets. Of course, there is also the mobile sphere which is far more interested in SVG solutions (but these are not svg applications per se but applications that deliver SVG content).
