Comment (by LewisCowles):

 Hi, Upload support without media gallery is useless! Media gallery support
 for SVG, without upload support is useless! Do you see my point?

 In any case, an interesting read. I submitted this, because I cannot
 believe WordPress core does not support SVG, and I did not want to have to
 bundle a plugin to clients wanting to use modern file formats.

 Sanitizing authorized user upload and input is a problem! It is not a
 feature, nor a benefit; it is most certainly not an improvement! It's like
 not letting a kid outside because they could hurt themselves or others,
 based on the fact they have hands, and hands can hold sharp pointy
 things...

 I will submit my media edits to #31258 without upload, as well, as it does
 fix the grid issue, but I disagree that it is prudent or necesarry to
 separate them on anything but an academicly shaky premise.

 I hope you can understand my passion and the point I am trying to make.

 Sure not easy making WordPress any better.
