Do recent versions of MKIV (specifically, the one in TeXLive 2012) 
support SVG graphics directly or is it still necessary to convert to PDF 
as in the wiki example?

I've created a couple of items in Inkscape and can save them to PDF 
directly without the "automatic" background conversion but native SVG 
support would be better if it exists.

Thanks.

while I'm still in Inkscape.

Not an "issue" just a curiosity.
