As far as I can tell, Inkscape (stable and trunk) does not use its internal renderer for the content of an <image> tag linking to an SVG file, but librsvg:
For a test, create a small file with a short flowed text, and link it in a second file via <image> tag: the flowed text will be rendered as black box (because it is an unsupported feature in any other SVG renderer except Inkscape).
