That shouldn't stop you from reporting bugs.  Closing a bug that is
not a bug is easy, and there's no shame in reporting a bug because you
didn't know something.  So please keep reporting bugs whenever you see
something you think might be a bug.

I tried to reproduce this, but I see only an empty square at this
point.  Are you sure you have all the steps of the recipe accurate and
without mistakes?  (It definitely lacks (require 'svg) at least.)

When the image is displayed correctly, if you go to the image and type
"M-x describe-text-properties RET", what does Emacs show in a buffer
it pops up?

What do you see in *Messages* after you visit the saved file as
described above?
