Bug Description

Shotwell Viewer, the default photo viewer application in Elementary, won't allow me to preview SVG files. I understand that SVG files are vector graphics and that everything else is raster graphics, but it'd still be really nice to allow Shotwell Viewer to display the SVG at window size, especially since I can see SVGs in Pantheon Files. Since I can see them and preview them in Pantheon Files, I assume that I can open them in Shotwell Viewer, but this isn't the case :-\
