Comment (by stippi):

 SVG is a huge specification with all sorts of features. I understand it is
 frustrating when an icon does not look correctly after importing. That's
 simply because IOM really only supports a very limited set of SVG
 features. No external CSS styling for example, only inline styling. Almost
 no referencing. The SVG import feature is really only intended to help get
 some paths into IOM and then do a lot of manual cleanup and tweaking to
 produce a final HVIF icon. Similarily, the SVG export is not complete
 either, and it cannot be, since SVG does not support all gradient types
 that IOM supports.

 So in other words, this is a "won't fix" as far as I am concerned. If some
 other developer is interested... please go for it! But proper SVG support
 could probably result in a triple the size of the current IOM code just
 for that.
