images in SVG

One problem with the colorbar is that the png file "im.write_png
(filename)" creates is upside down, image_demo.py creates an upside down
png too.

I see that the GTK/GDK backend does not use im.write_png() but uses
im.as_str() which has a 'flipud' argument to flip the image.
Is it possible for im.write_png() to take the 'flipud' argument and flip
the image for the SVG backend?

The name im.as_str() is a bit vague - what kind of string? Something
like im.as_rgba_str() would make it a bit clearer.

        example, the image in the colorbar is not properly sized
        
            import pylab as p

            p.savefig('test.svg')g
