Unfortunately, the workaround specified by vaifrax only works on paths, not clones of paths like I have. :(

In my case, the path specifies the outline, but leaves the stroke unset. I then create two clones. The first has a thin black stroke. The second, in the the background, has the blur and a wider white stroke. This effectively creates a complex stroke that SVG itself doesn't (yet) support.

Also, stroking the path makes it harder to edit down the line. You have to keep a hidden copy of the original path, locate it when it's time to edit, and restroke it.
