Thanks for your thoughts. I can’t say for certain since it hasn’t been spec’ed out, but I suspect the default would be that SVG would get imported as a DOM element instead of a file reference as it is now. Then it would behave similar to a symbol - you could double click in to enter it and there’d be the object hierarchy in the element list and special tools for dealing with it. This would probably allow setting properties like IDs on paths that you may care about.
This is all subject to change and not a feature promise.
