Using testing and svg and python hacking I've put together a
demonstration which works on the default lucid install:

So I may have been too hasty with my initial concerns. I think so long
as the svgs limits are known, it should be possible to do something even
more interesting than what I have done here.

Martin,

I've been wondering for a while where all the SMIL stuff went to..
We have adobe flash, air, that silverthingy and some other stuff around, but the standards are not being used, even though they provide such enormous possiblities..

What about performance? Is this stuff not heavy on processing power?
