I'm personally leaning to the school of thought that there is no easy reconciliation between CSS and SVG on this and several other issues as regards parser reuse. I don't think this is a terrible thing, either, since it's established that parsers for such values aren't very difficult to write, nor are they processor intensive. In this particular issue, "!important" in a presentation attribute is also meaningless, since the CSS and SVG WGs have defined presentation attributes to have a computed specificity of zero.
