hm - this is bad. SVG is quite essential for QGIS and its relation to
Inkscape and other vector graphics tools.

I don't think that QtWebkit would be a good enough replacement for
QtSVG. It is certainly much more capable for rendering than QtSVG, but
QGIS also needs QtSVG for writing. I don't think that QtWebkit could
handle that.

Maybe someone from the QGIS project could be the new maintainer of the
QtSVG code and improve it to our needs?

It would definitely worth having a look at other SVG libraries, such as
QtWebkit, librsvg, Inkscape or others, but it at the end it has to be a
read/write solution, not just a read solution.

I personally have a good understanding of SVG, but I am not a C++
programmer. I probably would be able to support an SVG effort
financially if someone could work on it.
