Bug Description

Users expect it to render the svg and print it to the page just like any other image file.

Seems trivial...

Isn't trivial at all, you can use an image viewer to print the svg for

Nah, I could hack foomatic-rip to invoke rsvg in no time. Totally easy.

But now I will simply add that step to my printing scripts.
