I'm not interested in it as a rendering tool (well, not in this 
instance anyway).

I am interested in having it as an open file format that everybody can 
load and save.

Then you can use Visio, I can use OmniGraffle and Jo Designer can use 
Illustrator and, as long as they can all load and save SVG, we can all 
work on the same documents.
