Description Mickael Istria CLA 2018-03-01 15:06:00 EST 
I've been hacking an SVG with XML editor and it took me some time to consider opening the internal browser of Eclipse IDE to get the preview as I modify the SVG. When I figured that out, I was very pleased of this workflow.
The SVG files should have "Image" and XML content-type, so that it would allow by default to edit them and preview them.

Note that while the initial comment mention XML content-type, the patch isn't about it. On 2nd thought, I'm not sure adding the XML content-type for SVG in Platform brings any value as there is no magic provided for XML in Platform.
