Given that this allows an image to be completely changed I suspect we wouldn't be willing to implement this feature to modify SVG-as-an-image i.e. via the image tag or backgound images. Using it via the object or iframe tags would be OK though. If it gives you the ability to do something that a gif or png doesn't allow then it breaks people's mental model of images. E.g. if you host a bulletin board and you vet image uploads somehow as safe then you should not be able to get around that by removing some part of the image to reveal a completely different image.
