Is it possible to make rsvg-convert support remote URIs? With the following SVG it doesn't work if the image is a remote HTTP object. GIO allegedly has an HTTP backend.

<svg xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"
 xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"
 style="-webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); " 
 xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" version="1.1"
 width="778" height="778" viewBox="0 0 20.6 20.6">
 <image
  style="-webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); "
  x="0" y="0" width="20.6" height="20.6"
  preserveAspectRatio="none"
  xlink:href="http://example.com/test.jpg"
  id="background-canvas"></image>
 </svg>

Tried with base-uri (it doesn't seem to work even for file://) and other ways without luck.

This is using CentOS 6.
