[xep-support] Cropping vector graphics?

Gustaf,

unless I misinterpret your explanation, the space around images is kept
by your drawing application. XEP does not look inside to compute the bounding
box, it just takes what is specified as the image's size.

This is exactly the same thing as with raster images: XEP does not look inside
bitmaps to find first meaningful pixel, it just insert the bitmap as a whole.
