I need an svg with unlimited zoom

I am working on a program that lays out fractal renderings onto an SVG.

For this I need rediculous zoom levels, both Inkscape and Correl draw have a zoom limit. Does anybody know of an svg editor that allows unlimited zooming?

I think you need arbitrary precision arithmetic in the implementation, as well, the same as fractal generator programs.

Hi,

I guess the point in question of getting an implementation with unlimited zoom is that

: The variables holding on to the values of the Transformation matrix run out.. And since the values of the matrix double (In case of zoom due to a scale factor of 2 ) each time, they fill out the variable pretty soon.....
So technically getting unlimited zoom should be extremely difficult if not impossible...

Someone please correct me if I am wrong on this....

Maybe some implementations should achieve like 20-30 zooms going on the upper limits...
