A user > interface language needs to be usable in any context -- high definition > widescreen video output, low-resolution small screen handheld devices, > speech-based user agents, braille displays, TVs, to name but a few. >From the SVG charter: " This additional work will mean that the graphics in Web documents will be smaller, faster, more interactive, and be displayable on a wider range of device resolutions from small mobile devices through office computer monitors to high resolution printers. " SVG is intented for "interactive" applications (user interfaces) and also intented for "a wider range of device resolutions".
