I would try. :) I understand it's difficult, but I highly doubt that
Opera -- who have been supporting SVG on mobile for at least 5 years,
long before Firefox had even begun implementing it -- would have given
up on it.

It *is* possible, on the other hand, that SVG in OL doesn't work
on Opera 9.7. Which would be worth fixing.

Almost two, and I didn't have a device to test on. I have, for the
record, used OpenLayers with minimal SVG in an Opera Mobile browser...
but to be honest, it wasn't long after that post, and it's been a *long*
time since then, both in SVG terms, and in terms of my memory :)

Sure, I understand that. but I also think that it might be going too
far, and making more work for yourself to do so.
