You are correct SVG is not supported.
I also volunteer with the marketing committee and will add your request to
the collection of improvements requested for the OSGeo website.
The osgeo system admin committee runs the wordpress server. I have reported
the error for you here: https://trac.osgeo.org/osgeo/ticket/3087
